Photograph by Peter Mortifee
On a recent safari in the Serengeti of Tanzania , I captured this image of an infant wildebeest keeping up with its mother. These remarkable animals can run at the same speed of the adults within 45 minutes of their birth. Finding ourselves in the middle of thousands of these animals migrating across the vast Serengeti was one of the most moving experiences of my life.
