Voi Unit  May   31, 2012 Tassia demonstrated his strength today in an unusual way – pushing his forehead against the waterhole walls during the mudbath hour. Taveta was first in the pool, soon joined by Tassia, this time seemingly on friendly terms! Layoni dug mud up with his foot and tossed it on the bathers, which prompted them to come out. Emsaya played apart from her more exuberant colleagues and today it was Rombo who led the herd back in the evening.

Notes:- Ndara has shown great improvement. The swelling on her injured foot has subsided and she can now move a little further from the Stockades and come and go at her own pleasure. The body wounds caused by another two arrows are also healing well.
