They raised the alarm, calling for help and setting the rescue in motion. The KWS Rapid Response Team rushed to her aid, spending the night by her side, protecting her and monitoring her condition until help could arrive. The KWS ECA Mobile Vet Unit, led by Dr. Michael Njoroge, set out to reach her. The rugged terrain tested their resolve, but nothing could stop the team from pushing forward with the rescue mission. Upon reaching the site, the team found the elephant exhausted and completely caked in dried mud. The team carefully cleared the mud around her body, secured heavy-duty straps beneath her and coordinated a pull using two Mobile Vet Unit vehicles. After hours of painstaking work, she was finally free. 💕 Behind every successful rescue is a team willing to go the extra mile for wildlife. They keep showing up, keep fighting, and keep giving wildlife a second chance.
