Wildlife:- Grumeti camp lies in the path of the famous annual great migration of zebra and wildebeest on their migratory route to Kenya's Masai Mara National Reserve. The migration passes by the camp during the months of May to July every year. Animals in the Grumeti area include lion, elephant, buffalo, wildebeest, zebra, baboon, cheetah and Maasai giraffe. The pan on the edge of the camp is home to pods of grunting hippo. These amphibians float lazily on the surface by day and after dark move onto the grassy plains to feed. Some of the largest hippos in the world are found in these waters. The area also boasts one of the highest densities of cheetah in Africa Mammals such as the black-and-white colobus monkey are confined to the forested sliver of the Serengeti lining the Grumeti River.
Birds are abundant around the camp, drawn to the multiple attractions of tall trees, prolific insects and drinking water. Interesting birds to look out for are Black-headed Gonolek, Rufous Chatterer, African Mourning Dove, Paradise Flycatcher, White-browed Coucal, African Golden Oriole, Spotted Morning Thrush, Slate-coloured Boubou and the dazzling Fischer's Lovebird.
