Tsavo Mobile Veterinary Unit for July 2019

Two post-mortems were conducted on buffalo carcasses that were confirmed to have anthrax as well as two post-mortems on elephant carcasses that died from arrow and spear wounds. There were also two human-wildlife conflict cases involving a hippo that was killed when it wandered into Manyani Prison and an elephant with a slash wound to the trunk. One elephant and one hyena were also treated for snare wounds; the elephant was taken to the Nairobi Nursery and the hyena was sadly euthanised as the injury was to severe.
