Amboseli Mobile Veterinary Report for August 2024

Published on the 15th of September, 2024

The Southern Conservation area in August 2024 experienced warm and hot weather. Two cases of veterinary concern were attended during the month.

The two cases included the treatment of a lame elephant bull and the postmortem examination of two zebras. The elephant likely suffered from human-wildlife conflict and had a suspected spear injury. The two dead zebras had traumatic injuries and were likely hit by a speeding vehicle. The vet team resumed during the month after annual leave and hence were few cases reported.
