Three young cheetah cubs playing last week. Sadly on Monday two of the cubs went missing.

The Mother and three cubs were on the New Burn on Wednesday, after a couple of days absence.

They are being taken care of well, with the Mother making a kill every day.

The day before yesterday there was an interaction between two of our male rhinos. One, it seemed, was quite badly injured around the eye area so the KWS vet Dr Dominic Mijele was called in to take a look.

In the video you can see that rangers had to pull down the rhino as the tranquilliser did not take full affect. The wounds were then looked at, cleaned up, and then the rhino revived. Within seconds the rhino was fine and eating again (although looked a bit like a Jackson Pollock painting).

Taken yesterday, this is one of the first wildebeest crossings of the Mara River this year. Crossings were happening up and down the river throughout the day, and this one we caught at around 5pm.

Rangers yesterday were alerted to the presence of poachers on one of the islands found along the Mara River. Our patrol teams and newly trained bloodhound tracker dogs were brought to the scene.

A poachers' camp was found as well as one poacher, rangers arrested another and the dogs were able to sniff out two more poachers from the long grass.

In the video the bushmeat is being burned by the rangers. The poachers were arrested and taken to the Tanzanian courts.
