Beautiful sentences describing exotic customs

Some people say that there is a bond between wild animals and this mysterious land of Africa, which human beings can never set foot in. The Serengeti prairie between Tanzania and Kenya verifies this statement.

Serengeti means "land that flows forever" in Massai, and its name may come from the habit of large-scale migration of animals living on this grassland every year. Every July and August, thousands of animal residents on the grassland migrate from the western part of Serengeti grassland to the northern part with abundant water plants, and go south to prepare for calving in October, and then return to the western part of the grassland. Every year, no matter what bad weather and environment you encounter during your journey, no matter how many natural enemies are waiting to devour their young, their migration time and route are as accurate as a clock and as unchangeable as the earth's rotation.

They are running, and the dust raised is like a veil on the grassland under the sunlight. Maybe we should describe such a spectacular migration scene with great momentum. The roar in the ear and the war horse in front of us are all demonstrations of vitality. This power is amazing and can break through all obstacles. For the development of mankind, the Tanzanian government once set up a barbed metal fence on the way of animal migration to prevent them from going north. Human beings tried to interfere with the order of Serengeti and prevent thousands of animals from traveling for thousands of years. The result, of course, was that the migrating army rudely crossed the fence and continued their journey of thousands of miles. Nothing can stop them, they are the masters here. The flow of Serengeti grassland will not stop because of anyone. This is the essence of life. Here, you will find that the most beautiful moment of a horse is the moment when it runs freely without any rider's control and halter. The charm of life is undoubtedly revealed in these advancing animals.

They live in houses built with cow dung and wear unique Marseille national costumes. What is particularly surprising is that their auricles are covered with all kinds of ornaments, and even their noses are covered with ornaments. They are also a group of people we can't understand.

We will not stop exploring Serengeti, and the owner of Serengeti will not stop migrating because of our interference. Serengeti's flow is eternal.
