The main settlement is Seronera which houses the majority of research staff and the park’s main headquarters,
including its primary airstrip. The park is usually described as divided in three regions: ·
Serengeti
plains: the endless, almost treeless grassland of the south is the most emblematic scenery of the park. This is where the
wildebeest breed, as they remain in the plains from December to May. Other hoofed animals- zebra, gazelle, impala, hartebeest, topi, buffalo, waterbuck- also occur in huge numbers during the wet season. Kopjes are granite florations
which are very common in the region, and they are great observation posts for predators, as well as a refuge for hyrax and pythons. · Western corridor: the "black cotton" (actually black clay) soil covers
the swampy savannah of this region. Grumeti river is home to enormous Nile crocodiles, colobus monkey, and the martial eagle. The migration passes through from May to July. · Northern Serengeti: the landscape is dominated by open woodlands (predominantly
Commiphora) and hills, ranging from Seronera in the South, to the Mara river in the limit with Kenya. Apart from the migratory wildebeest and zebra (which occur from
July to August, and in November), the bushy savannah is the best place to find elephant, giraffe and dik dik.
