Ever wondered what it takes to vaccinate a dog? 🐕💉 1.. It’s more than just a needle — it’s a moment of trust, teamwork, and community. Let’s walk you through it — the journey of one dog(Simba), one boy(Juma), and one vaccine. #LRVC2025 #OneHealth

At #TeamWildDog we believe knowledge inspires love — and love inspires protection. That’s why we bring conservation into classrooms and communities, making sure the next generation understands the value of #Africanwilddogs and the ecosystems they help keep healthy. #Education

We may have missed #AfricanWildDogDay yesterday… but at #TeamWildDog one day is never enough! We’re celebrating ALL WEEK — from their role in healthy ecosystems to protecting them through rabies vaccination & community outreach. For us, every day is wild dog day!! #WildDog

Once on the brink of extinction, African Wild Dogs are making a comeback in the Greater Laikipia Landscape. These endangered animals remind us that survival and conservation both depend on working together. 📸 Tui De Roy #AfricanWildDogDay #WildlifeConservation #Laikipia

Yesterday was #WorldElephantDay2025🐘 From keeping migration corridors open to shaping grasslands, elephants help sustain the same ecosystems where #africanwilddogs thrive. In Laikipia, #conservation is never about one species alone — it’s about the entire web of life. #wildlife

Behind every successful #LRVC is a network of committed partners. In a volunteer-driven campaign, partnerships are everything — from logistics, medical supplies, field teams and community mobilization. Today, we pause to say Asante💚 #LRVC2025 #OneHealth #StrongerTogether

This campaign wouldn’t be what it is without the support of other dedicated partners like @OlmaisorCamp & @MukutanKenya. From mobilizing communities to making their teams and vehicles available — your contributions kept the wheels turning (literally). We see you and thank you.

6.. Before heading home, Juma receives a vaccination certificate with Simba’s name on it. It’s a small paper — but it carries big meaning. Proof that Simba is protected, and that Juma is part of the journey to a rabies-free Laikipia. #LRVC2025 #OneHealth #RabiesFreeKenya

7.. Simba's and Juma's story is just one of many. Each vaccinated dog, each informed owner, brings us closer to a rabies-free Laikipia. Behind every jab is a team a committed to protect life. Follow along, spread the word — and be part of the journey. #LRVC2025 #OneHealth

This campaign is about more than vaccines. It’s about building trust, spreading knowledge, and making communities safer — one conversation, one injection, one village at a time. #OneHealth #LRVC2025 #RabiesPrevention

Let’s make 2025 count. Because when we protect our pets (dogs and cats) , we protect people AND wildlife. #OneHealthinaction #LRVC2025 #Laikipia #RabiesfreeKenya
