Wildebeest Gives Birth To Clumsy Calf: SNAPPED IN THE WILD

The video explores the calving season of wildebeests in Tanzania, where 80% of females give birth within a two to three-week period. Unlike other antelopes, wildebeests give birth in the middle of the herd, ensuring the survival of most calves despite predator threats. Each female births one calf annually after an 8 to 8.5-month gestation. Calves quickly learn to stand and run, begin eating grass within 10 days, and suckle for four months. They stay with their mothers until the next calf is born, with males maturing sexually at two years and females at three.
