Explore Lake Bogoria in Kenya where one million flamingos are known to gather!

Many animals have special ways to attract a mate. Mates are animals that come together to make young. Flamingos dance to find a partner. Some dance moves involve a twist and a bend. Others are a wingspread and leg lift. These dance moves are often done in a large marching group. The flamingos with the most dance moves are more likely to find a mate.
