Earlier today, the Institute’s Director Dr. Patrick Omondi officially opened the Interventions in Wild Animal Health (IWAH) field course training at the Institute’s headquarters in Naivasha.

The three-week training has been organized by the Wildlife Health Bridge consortium, which includes the Zoological Society of London, the Wildlife Institute of India, the University of Edinburgh (Royal Dick School of Veterinary Studies), the University of Melbourne, Toronto Zoo and Royal Veterinary, London.

Dr. Omondi thanked the team for choosing to host the training at the Institute, adding this is the first time that the course is being held in the country after it was held successfully in India in 2016.

“This course aims to strengthen the capacity of wildlife veterinarians especially in biodiverse, low-income countries where conservation efforts require enhanced professional support for wildlife health. Drawing from the success of the programme in India, I am confident that expanding the course to other parts of the Global South enhances the capacity of wildlife health professionals to address modern-day conservation challenges,” he said.

He emphasized the significance of a robust wildlife health system in Kenya, highlighting the country’s unique open ecosystem.

“This training is timely and critical in strengthening our capacity to monitor and respond to emerging wildlife health issues. Kenya’s open ecosystem allows for free-ranging wildlife, making disease surveillance and intervention a key priority in conservation efforts,” Dr. Omondi stated.

He noted that this dynamic environment presents both opportunities and challenges for wildlife health management, necessitating continuous research, training, and collaboration.

The participants will participate in specialized training on wildlife population monitoring, disease outbreak investigations, and techniques for capture, restraint, and anaesthesia.

Further, they will engage in both theoretical and field-based learning at the Institute’s Wildlife Sanctuary, Hells Gate National Park and Marula Ranch to enhance their expertise in wild animal health interventions.

The course has attracted 27 wildlife veterinarians from 13 countries including Kenya, Uganda, Nigeria, Hungary, Australia, Canada, Belgium, the UK, China, Spain, India, Nepal and Finland.

Also in attendance were Head of Research- Dr David Ndeereh, Head of Training-Roselyn Onyuro, Head Corporate Services- John Mwangi, Principal Scientists Dr Joseph Gakuya and other senior management.

NATIONAL WILDLIFE CENSUS (2024-2025) UPDATES: The Institute, in collaboration with the Kenya Wildlife Service, the State Department for Wildlife, and other partners, are excited to announce that the Tsavo ecosystem total aerial census will commence from February 15th to 25th, 2025.

Tsavo ecosystem is Kenya’s largest continuous savannah range, covering approximately 49,611 km².

This critical ecosystem spans five counties and plays a vital role in Kenya’s biodiversity, representing 38% of elephant population range in the country.

The 2021 wildlife census recorded 14,964 elephants in the ecosystem, reaffirming its status as the largest elephant stronghold in Kenya.

This exercise will provide updated insights into population trends, habitat dynamics, and challenges affecting wildlife within the ecosystem

Stay tuned for more updates!
