Each year between January and March a remarkable event takes place in the Ndutu region of Tanzania.

During this season thousands of wildebeests, zebras, and other herbivores gather in the southern Serengeti plains to give birth to their young.

Pregnant herbivores come to the lush plains of Ndutu to seek out nutrient-rich grasslands to ensure the best start to life for their vulnerable little ones.

It's a critical period for the survival of these animals, as predators such as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas take advantage of the abundance of easy prey.

Photographers and wildlife enthusiasts swarm to this part of Tanzania to witness the spectacle of life, death, and renewal.
