Where Is the Serengeti?

Which of these facts are true?
A lion’s roar can be heard five miles away
Every year, more than a million wildebeests travel five hundred miles in a dangerous search for fresh grassland
Fossils from the oldest human species were discovered near here All of the above!


If you’ve never known what a wildebeest is, you’ll find out now in this latest Where? Is title about the Serengeti.

Each year, over 1.5 million wildebeest make a harrowing journey (more than one thousand miles!) between Tanzania and Kenya. They are in search of new land to graze. Even if these creatures avoid vicious attacks from lions and crocodiles, they could still fall prey to thirst, hunger, and exhaustion. This book not only follows the exciting Migration, but also tells about the other creatures and peoples that co-exist along these beautiful landscapes of the Serengeti.
