Every year in mid February roughly a million wildebeest gather on the short grass plains of the Southern Serengeti to give birth. Over 400,000 calves are born in the space of about 3 weeks.

Aside from the newborn wildebeest calves, the plains are also alive with young animals of all kinds from young zebras to the numerous predators that follow the migrating herds. As the rains end the animals head north-west into Kenya’s Masai Mara in what is known as “the great migration.”

The carnival in Venice is another pre-Lent celebration that undoubtedly causes people to ask, “Who is that masked man?” That’s because the elaborate masks revelers wear is the most famous part of the carnival that Venice has been celebrating since the 12th century.

People’s behavior behind the masks became so disreputable, the tradition of wearing masks was publicly banned for a couple of centuries, emerging from the shadows in the 20th century as a way to attract even more tourists to this canal city. Near the end of the celebration, an international panel of fashion and costume designers picks one mask as the most beautiful.

– То коли вже, Максиме, твоя мама нам ключі від свого будинку дасть? – питає невістка мого сина, бо переконана, що мене вдома немає і я їх не чую.

– Алінко, сонечко. Ну ж не буду я настирливо про це нагадувати. Я впевнений, що на мій день народження все і станеться – напевно, мама хоче урочисто, при всій родині нам ключі подарувати, – заспокоює свою дружину, яка вже встигла надути губки, мій син.

The Chinese flock to temples to pray for a great new year. Flower markets, fireworks and horse races fill the coming days. The Lunar New Year festival lasts for 15 days, ending with the traditional Lantern Festival. The celebration is similar to Christmas in western countries as families get together and exchange gifts, usually red packets containing money.

New Orleans began celebrating Mardi Gras just a few years after its founding in 1718. Early celebrations were balls organized by the governor. Today’s celebration features elaborate floats in parades through town (only foot parades are held in the famed French Quarter) and costumed revelers wearing purple, green and gold vie for strings of beads tossed from the floats.
