Wildlife on One

March Of The Flamebirds (20x1)

Air date: Jan 07, 1993

Shows how flamingoes arrive on the Makgadikgadi Pans at the edge of the Kalahari Desert when it is transformed into a shallow lake by heavy rain every year. When the lake bed begins to dry, the baby flamingoes walk 50 miles to the nearest other water supply, a journey which takes many weeks.
