November 30th
Another Rescue today – this time a calf from the South Turkana Game Reserve, so the Rescue Team set out at 7 a.m. The calf arrived back in the Nursery just before 1 p.m., a young bull of about 6 months old, in an advanced state of dehydration and emaciation, obviously having been without his mother for quite some time. He was named “Orwa”, the name of the area in which he was rescued. He occupies the Stable next door to Sities, who did her best to welcome him, but just trying to survive was his main preoccupation. Being so feeble, and in such poor condition, everyone was worried that he would collapse during the night and have to be put on life support, which, amazingly, did not happen!
