Sera forms part of the rangeland of the Samburu, Borana and Rendille tribes in Northern Kenya. These communities are primarily pastoralists, but Sera has important populations of many wildlife species too, including elephants. It was one of the wells used to water livestock that this tiny calf fell into and was later found by Sera Rangers and casual workers involved in trying to establish a Rhino Sanctuary under the auspices of the Northern Rangelands Trust. Since it was already too late for a rescue plane from Nairobi, he spent the night at Kisima Hamisin before being driven to the Kauro Security Camp at Sera H.Q. the next morning, there to await the arrival of the rescue plane.
