Did you know the world’s rarest antelope is a picky eater?
For 2026, research into the Hirola antelope identifies a complex interplay of nutritional needs and habitat changes driving their diet selection.

Respiration, heart rate, oxygen levels, and temperature are tracked continuously to keep the rhino stable and stress-free.
From precision ear-notching and drilling to fit transmitters, to collecting biological samples for research, to marking, documentation, and finally reviving the rhino—every role ensures a safe, successful operation.
This is conservation in motion, powered by teamwork!

The short rain in Garissa was brief, but for our Somali giraffes, it was a breath of life. Every drop brings new hope for the wild we work to protect. #SomaliGiraffeProject
Giraffes and livestock now share our rangelands peacefully — a sign that coexistence is taking root. Through community engagement, herders see giraffes as part of the same landscape they depend on. 🌍🦒

A young hyena was killed on the Modika–Shimbirey Highway — another tragic case of roadkill.
We must act: wildlife crossings, signs, and speed control can save lives.

As we eagerly await the short rains, the Tana River continues to serve as a vital lifeline for both wildlife and local communities. In these anxious and challenging times, its waters provide much-needed relief to giraffes and other wildlife species across Garissa County.
