Nyama za nyumbu miliyoni imodzi… iliyonse yoyendetsedwa ndi kayimbidwe kakale komweko, ikukwaniritsa gawo lake lachibadwa mu kayendedwe ka moyo kosatha: nkhondo ya milungu itatu yolimbana ndi kukwerana kwa malo; kupulumuka kwa zamoyo zolimba pamene mizati yayitali ya 40km (25 mile) ikulowa m'madzi okhala ndi ng'ona paulendo wapachaka wa kumpoto; kudzazanso mitunduyi mu kuchuluka kwa anthu komwe kumapanga ana a ng'ombe oposa 8,000 tsiku lililonse ulendo wa makilomita 1,000 (600 mile) usanayambenso.
Paki yakale kwambiri komanso yotchuka kwambiri ku Tanzania, yomwe ndi malo osungiramo zinthu zakale padziko lonse lapansi komanso posachedwapa yalengezedwa kukhala malo achisanu ndi chiwiri padziko lonse lapansi, Serengeti imadziwika chifukwa cha kusamuka kwake kwa pachaka, pomwe ziboda pafupifupi mamiliyoni asanu ndi limodzi zimagunda m'zigwa zotseguka, pomwe mbidzi zoposa 200,000 ndi mbawala za Thomson 300,000 zimalowa nawo paulendo wa nyumbu wokadya udzu watsopano. Komabe ngakhale kusamukako kuli chete, Serengeti mwina imapereka malo okongola kwambiri owonera nyama ku Africa: magulu akuluakulu a njati, magulu ang'onoang'ono a njovu ndi giraffe, ndi zikwizikwi za nswala, topi, kongoni, impala ndi mbawala za Grant.
Kuwoneka kwa nyama zolusa ndi nyama zolusa kukuchitika kwambiri ku paki yayikulu kwambiri ku Tanzania. Mkango wodzitamandira ndi ubweya wagolide umadya nyama zambiri zolusa. Akambuku okhaokha amayendayenda m'mitengo ya acacia yomwe ili m'mphepete mwa Mtsinje wa Seronera, pomwe akambuku ambiri amayendayenda m'zigwa zakum'mwera chakum'mawa. Mwapadera, mitundu yonse itatu ya nkhandwe zaku Africa imapezeka kuno, pamodzi ndi afisi okhala ndi madontho ndi nyama zina zambiri zazing'ono zomwe sizipezeka, kuyambira nkhandwe yolusa mpaka mphaka wokongola wa serval.
Koma pali zambiri zokhudza Serengeti kuposa nyama zazikulu. Abuluzi a Gaudy agama ndi rock hyraxes amathamanga mozungulira pamwamba pa granite koppies za pakiyi. Mitundu yonse 100 ya dungbee yalembedwa, komanso mitundu yoposa 500 ya mbalame, kuyambira nthiwatiwa yayikulu ndi mbalame yachilendo ya m'munda wotseguka, mpaka ziwombankhanga zakuda zomwe zimauluka mosavuta pamwamba pa Lobo Hills.
Ngakhale kuti kuonera masewerawa kumatenga nthawi yayitali, kumawoneka bwino kwambiri m'malo otsetsereka a Serengeti Plains, omwe amafalikira m'nkhalango yoyaka ndi dzuwa mpaka ku thambo lowala lagolide kumapeto kwa dziko lapansi. Komabe, mvula ikagwa, udzu wagolide uwu umasanduka kapeti wobiriwira wopanda malire wokhala ndi maluwa akuthengo. Palinso mapiri okhala ndi mitengo ndi milu yayitali ya chiswe, mitsinje yokhala ndi mitengo ya mkuyu ndi nkhalango ya acacia yopakidwa utoto wa lalanje ndi fumbi.
Serengeti ikhoza kukhala yotchuka, koma imakhalabe yochuluka kwambiri kotero kuti mungakhale nokha omvera pamene mikango yonyada imayambitsa kuukira, ikuyang'ana kwambiri chakudya chake chotsatira.
