Wildebeests (Connochaetes taurinus), also known as gnus, are famous for their massive migrations across the African savanna. These herbivores travel in herds numbering in the thousands, moving in search of fresh grazing land and water.
In zoos, wildebeests are kept in large, open enclosures shared with other savanna animals like zebras and antelopes. These mixed-species exhibits allow visitors to see how wildebeests interact with other animals, much like they would in the wild. The herds display fascinating behaviors, such as synchronized movement and coordinated grazing.
Zoos also highlight the importance of protecting migratory corridors in Africa, as human development threatens these vital pathways. By showcasing wildebeests, zoos inspire visitors to support conservation efforts for these iconic creatures.
