Severe drought in Kenya, wildlife are dying

Severe drought in Kenya devastated hundreds of wildlife that are dying every day due to a lack of food and water. Dead bodies of giraffes, zebras are piled up in the forest. More than one such tragic picture is being published on social media every day.

Recently, pictures of some giraffes lying inside the Sabuli Wildlife Conservancy in Kenya’s Wazir area came to light. The pictures made the animal lovers cry. It was learned that the dead giraffes were photographed on December 10, 2021. They were rescued dead in the same manner.

As it was reflected in the picture, the giraffes were weakened by a lack of food and water and were slowly dying. The photo was shared on social media with the caption, ‘Giraffes were trying to drink water from a nearby dry pond. At that moment, they were stuck in the mud, and they died there.’

The drought in Kenya has brought inestimable damage for the people and animals residing there. Especially, the population of giraffes and zebras is highly affected due to drought.

Those in charge of wildlife conservation in the area said that all have dried up due to the severe drought. There was no drinking water anywhere. Attempts were made to save the livestock in this situation but no help has been provided to the wildlife. That was the reason for premature animal death.
