Very serene image of the animals grazing, James. We would be wise to preserve places like the Serengeti plain to ensure both survival of nature's diversity and an abundant food source. Quite a majestic image of Africa. Love, Carolyn

Hi Stefania, the Serengeti is a vast plain in Tanzania/Kenya, it is the largest and longest overland migration in the world, the green is the vast plains of grass that is required to sustain such herds, James

i don't know if this is what you wanted to achieve or express, but going through these lines i saw images of large numbers of cattle grazing and then being slaughtered for their meat that would go on supermarket racks for people to buy and cook. i see fat people that have no concern for their weight. i see carelessness... awesome write though :). stephanie
