Something that stood out during my Kenya Migration Photo Expedition was the presence of family connection throughout so many aspects of our nature adventure. Relationships among groups of people working in the safari industry and the bonds within migrating herds of animals seemed to link everyone and everything together into vast networks of East African kinship.

It’s typically said that animal behavior is the result of biology and environment. The responses of wildlife are driven by the primal urges to survive and reproduce; or are triggered by internal or external cues, such as the appearance of a nearby threat.

The grasslands of Kenya’s Maasai Mara sweep you off your feet with surreal scenery and celebrated wildlife. During the Great Migration, millions of wildebeest and hundreds of thousands of zebras and other ungulates move through the landscape, feeding on the grasses and, in turn, providing food for hungry carnivores.

The Lion King left many viewers longing to visit the plains of Africa. The family-friendly film conjures up images of elephants browsing on acacia trees and amber-eyed predators prowling among golden grasses as an enormous red sun sinks below the horizon.

Animals and plants are remarkably resilient in the face of environmental changes. Their creative adaptations and strategies for surviving in ever-altering conditions include going dormant, developing drought tolerance, adjusting migrations, switching to nocturnal activity, forming a salinity tolerance and making social partnerships.

It’s July, and I already know what’s coming. Scientists will find that 2025 is one of the hottest years on record, just like 2024 was and 2023 before it. They’ve been warning us for decades that this would happen.

No one type of wildlife corridor benefits all animals. Overpasses, tunnels and underpasses need to be built smarter, with particular needs in mind.

Exactly one month after Earth Day, on May 22, global communities join in solidarity to celebrate the International Day for Biological Diversity.

Despite a common belief, counting is not unique to humans. In fact, a vast range of animals understand numbers, helping them to solve a variety of problems, such as acquiring food, defending themselves, navigating and even finding a mate.
