The iconic Maasai Mara National Reserve has officially been recognised by the World Book of Records for hosting the World's Greatest Annual Terrestrial Wildlife Migration.
This monumental achievement elevates Kenya's internationally renowned reserve further in the fields of conservation and tourism.
Narok Governor Patrick Ole Ntutu announced the milestone, calling it a proud moment for Kenya and a strong endorsement of ongoing conservation efforts in the Mara. "This recognition is a proud moment for Kenya, for Narok County, for our conservation partners, and for all who cherish the Maasai Mara," said Governor Ntutu. "We celebrate it with joy and extend a warm invitation to the world: come and witness this marvel of nature with us," he added.
The World Book of Records' honour specifically acknowledges the dramatic annual migration of over 1.5 million wildebeests, zebras, and antelopes across the expansive Serengeti-Mara ecosystem - a breathtaking spectacle unmatched anywhere on the planet.
