And for those of you whose connection is not good enough to watch video, here are some paltry photos to add to your disappointment:
1. Before they cross.
2. What they would have crossed.

You guys are amazing! This video is amazing! thank you for bringing this to people who might never have a chance to see such a thing. I tweeted this out so others can enjoy it too!
Keep up the great work !
wonderful video... makes me sure wish I was there. Thanks.
I posted it on my blog. That is wonderful. The wildebeest tumbling over each other, the lion in the background. Fantastic!
that lioness needed a lesson or two on hunting for sure if she wishes to live by catching a meal to fill her belly. or better luck!
Thank you everyone - there's an incredible crossing every few hours at the moment...
No fare William,
You must not open the gate and let to many of them thru. Please hold afew so Dana and I will be able to see a few crossing when we get there in Sept. We can't wait to see our first of our year.
See you soon
Its good to see that nature doesnt disappoint! The crossings take place with/without human interference! Just wish the grass was greener!!! When do they go back?? Should make a point to catch that!!
Wow! Pretty darn amazing crossing. Made my palms sweat :>) Wonder if the lioness ever caught one of the wildbeasts?
