How do massive wildebeest herds survive constant predator attacks?
In short: In the face of relentless predation, wildebeest herds perform a complex survival act. This video follows scientists as they take to the air to decode the mathematical patterns behind these migrations.
Researchers are using aerial perspectives to investigate the survival mechanisms of large wildebeest herds. By studying their movement, scientists aim to understand how these animals manage to endure despite being constantly surrounded by predators.
