Lake Naivasha and the Central Rift Conservation Area are now very dry with minimal rainfall. Generally, there is limited vegetation within the region but towards the end of the month the seasonal rains began which will hopefully rejuvenate the area.
During the month, the Unit performed general patrols and attended to 27 cases within various Farms and Ranches within Lake Naivasha as well as Soysambu, Lake Elementia and Lake Nakuru National Park. 13 of the cases were poaching related, all of which were snaring incidents involving 1 oryx, 2 giraffe and 10 zebras. The Unit was also involved in the assessment of the Lake Nakuru habitat and the other of Saiwa Swamp National Park.
