MEP rangers experienced a first while recently on patrol in the Mau Forest; a monkey trapped in a wire snare. Working alongside our government partners, the monkey was freed from the trap. Snares removed, a life saved, and a second chance in the wild.

Every baby elephant in the Mara represents hope. This tender moment between a mother and calf is a reminder of the strong bonds that shape elephant families. As the Official Safari Airline Partner of Mara Elephant Project, AirKenya helps support conservation awareness across the Mara ecosystem.
MEP rangers spotted Individual #128 with a severe limp from an arrow wound and alerted the KWS / @sheldricktrust.bsky.social Mobile Vet Unit. He was darted, treated, and his wound cleaned. Follow-up shows reduced swelling, improved movement, and feeding—encouraging signs of recovery.
One step from an elephant can undo days of work for a family. MEP rangers used drones to safely guide 3 bulls away from settlement fences and into Lemek Conservancy, protecting both elephant safety and community livelihoods.
Polaris knows a secret about electric fences. His GPS collar alerted Bravo Team before he could breach the settlement boundary. A drone guided him and two bulls safely back into the conservancy.

Living alongside elephants isn't always easy. For the Lemek community, elephant crop raids are a real and recurring challenge affecting livelihoods and food security. This is why Virtual Ranger is changing the game.
Rangers responded to a bull near Ngosuani settlements, Identified as Ol Choda, “the disturber.” Heading toward maize farms, he posed a risk to livelihoods. Using the thermal drone, the team guided him safely away, protecting people, elephants, and farms.
