Keepers' Diaries, August 2022

Kaluku Neonate Unit



Kaluku has always been an eclectic environment, but the addition of five squawking hatchlings transformed the herd into a fully-fledged flock! At the end of May, our Galana team discovered newly hatched Egyptian geese who had been abandoned at a dried up water hole. They scooped them up and brought them to our Kaluku Field Headquarters. Our Field Manager spent the next several weeks hand-raising the five chicks in his house.
