A 1-year-old male Elephant calf was on Sunday rescued after being stuck in a muddy water dam in Kilibasi area of Kwale county.
The Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) confirmed the incident, saying the calf was stabilised and treated and transfered to David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust Orphanage in Voi.
"We are grateful to the Kilibasi community led by their assistant chief who not only reported to KWS the incident but also helped in the rescue efforts led by Kenya Wildlife Service Vet. Dr Jeremiah Poghon," KWS said in an update.
This even as KWS held graduation of prosecutors at the Kenya School of Government.
The service indicated that the Public Prosecutors’ Course is an integral part of prosecutor training and skills development that will ensure wildlife crime prosecutors have the best competencies to deal with wildlife crimes and to guide investigators to get the best results out of investigations.
