Meru Mobile Veterinary Unit Report for May 2022

During May, the SWT/KWS Meru Veterinary Unit attended to six cases in Meru National Park. They include the rescue of a rhino calf who had strayed outside Meru Rhino Sanctuary and was successfully reunited with his mother, the treatment of a pregnant lioness for a puncture wound to her forelimb, and the treatment of three giraffe bulls who had marked lameness. All cases had a good prognosis for recovery. The vet team also did an autopsy examination on an elephant carcass, although the cause of death was inconclusive due to scavenging.
