Episode description

This episode centers around a sad fact: Botswana used to be home to Africa's second largest Wildebeest migration, only second in size to the Masai Mara/Serengeti Migration. This migration disappeared decades ago. Hundreds of thousands of antelope died off. Why it happened, and what we could do to bring these numbers back - in this episode of the Kalahari Diaires!
