One of the best wildlife spectacles I have ever witnessed is the great migration crossing of the Mara river. The noise , dust and sheer numbers of animals all running the gauntlet of crocs and waiting predators the other side is an unbelievable sight. There are a number of casualties lying in the river from previous crossings and on this occasion the herds were ambushed by lions who were hiding in the croton thickets on the far side.
