The new Meru Mobile Veterinary Unit's area of operation covers a vast expanse of diverse habitats within the Northern and Coastal territories, home to a host of endangered and threatened species.
In the Unit's first launching week, having already treated a white rhino in Meru, the newly formed team has been travelling throughout these remote habitats meeting and introducing the unit to the Kenya Wildlife Service teams, local communities, tourism lodges and other conservation bodies. It is incredibly important for this unit to work together with the greater communities of the area in order to receive wildlife reports and take action immediately to improve the animals chance of survival.
