KENYA-WILDLIFE-DROUGHT-RELOCATION
Wild Zebra stand on February 10, 2010 in a makeshift pen after they were rounded-up by Kenya Wildlife Service officers, KWS, to be loaded onto waiting trucks at Soysambu conservancy in Nakuru, approximately 200 kilometres north-west of Nairobi for translocation to Kenya's famed Amboseli national park. Kenyan game rangers began rounding up thousands of zebras to be moved to a reserve where starving lions have been attacking livestock. The spectacular nationwide operation, launched in Soysambu conservancy by the Kenyan Wildlife Service (KWS), is due to last until the end of the month in what will go down as one of Africa's largest animal translocations yet. KWS aims to move some 7,000 animals in all, 4,000 zebra and 3,000 wildebeest. At least 88 zebras had been captured, hours into the operation.
