The wildebeest is
the larger of the two species. In men are wildebeest 150 cm at the
withers and weighs about 250 kg, while the wildebeest is 111-120 cm long
and weighs about 180 kg. When women have wildebeest shoulder height of
135 cm and weighs 180 kg, while the wildebeests are women 108 cm at the
withers and weighs 155 kg. Blue wildebeest tend to be a dark gray
stripes, but maybe a light blue. The wildebeest has brown hair, with a mane color ranges from cream to black, and cream-colored tail.
The wildebeest lives

long-distance migration to coincide with the annual pattern of rainfall
and grass growth. At the end of the rainy season (May or June in East
Africa), wildebeest migrate in the dry season, in response to the lack
of surface water (drinking water). When the rainy season (months later)
starts, the animals quickly enough back to their rainy season.
As a result, during the rainy season wildebeest, choose grass extremely high levels of phosphorus. A study has been found in addition to phosphorus, wildebeest select herbs varies with a relatively high content of nitrogen. Massive wildebeest migration is likely the result of the decisions of individuals at different spatial scales, with a balance of food supply, the food, the local density of wildebeest other social interactions, the surface, the risk of looting and cultural experience (or genetic) Courses and scope.

Numerous documentaries
feature wildebeest crossing rivers, with many who. The main predators
feed on wildebeest the lions, hyenas, cheetahs, leopards and crocodiles,
which are reminiscent of the gnu promotion. Wildebeest are very
strong and can cause considerable damage, including a lion. The primary
defensive tactic is pastor, where young animals are protected from the
oldest, largest, while the herd runs as a group. Wildebeest more
sophisticated cooperative behaviors, such as animals sleep, alternately
while.

Wildebeest migration is closely followed by vultures, as wildebeest carcasses are an important source of food for these scavengers. The vultures consume about 70% of the channels wildebeests. Decrease in the number of migrating wildebeest have a negative effect on vultures. In the Serengeti, Tanzania facilitate, the wildebeest migration from other herbivores, smaller than the body, such as Thomson's gazelle (Eudorcas thomsonii), stimulates the growth of new grass by the ingestion of food wildebeest.
