Many Animals Affected

The animals described in the survey are some of the most endangered in the world. In total, 14 species of wildlife affected by the drought were surveyed for the report, including ostrich, giraffe, gazelles, hippos, and rhinos. To conduct the surveys, rangers in the Kenya Wildlife Service counted the bodies of animals that had died from drought-related mortalities between February and October 2022 in various regions of the country.
