Kenya
Kenya is one of the East African countries WARN is preparing to operate in, and one of the most important wildlife-rescue countries in the world. The Tsavo ecosystem alone…
Kenya is an East African country where WARN's planned work focuses on snare-removal patrols and rapid-response veterinary darting in the Tsavo and Maasai Mara ecosystems, sea-turtle triage on the Indian Ocean coast, and supporting partner work on lion, elephant, rhino, cheetah and African wild dog welfare.
Key Facts About Kenya
- Two of WARN's largest single-country wildlife appeals operate here.
- Tsavo ecosystem holds an estimated 13,000 elephants — Kenya's largest population.
- Approximately 2,000 snares are removed from Tsavo each year by ranger patrols.
- Kenya holds important populations of black and southern white rhino.
- Our planned Kenya work funds a mobile field-surgery unit serving Tsavo, plus aerial patrol support.
- Approximately 2,000 snares are removed from Tsavo each year by ranger patrols.

What is the wildlife situation in Kenya?
Kenya's protected-area network — Tsavo, Maasai Mara, Amboseli, Samburu and the coastal marine parks — protects globally significant populations of African elephants, lions, black and white rhinos, cheetahs, African wild dogs, and sea turtles. Snaring set for bushmeat is the largest non-poaching threat to large mammals.
What is WARN preparing to do in Kenya?
Funding a mobile field-surgery unit serving Tsavo, supporting aerial patrols and thermal-imaging drones for ranger services, and operating sea-turtle triage capacity on the Mombasa coast. This snare-removal and veterinary work forms the core of WARN's planned East Africa programme.
Why Kenya matters
Kenya has one of the most developed national wildlife-service infrastructures in Africa and one of the most active conservation NGO sectors. Additional veterinary and field-rescue funding here goes directly into operations rather than into building new institutions from scratch.
Tsavo mobile veterinary unit
Snared elephants, lions and giraffes need rapid darting and field surgery. A mobile unit serving Tsavo is the core of WARN's planned Kenya programme — partner-led, not WARN-run.
Coastal sea-turtle triage
Green and hawksbill turtles face net entanglement and plastic on the Mombasa coast. Partner grants fund nest protection and triage capacity alongside the sea-turtle appeal.
Threats to Wildlife in Kenya
