Thank you to Kenya Wildlife Service Garissa Station and local farmers for celebrating #WorldGiraffeDay with us. Together, we promoted giraffe conservation, sustainable livelihoodsand community stewardship for wildlife. #WorldGiraffeDay #GiraffeConservation #CommunityConservation
happy world giraffe day @somali_giraffe
Did you know the world’s rarest antelope is a picky eater? For 2026, research into the Hirola antelope identifies a complex interplay of nutritional needs and habitat changes driving their diet selection. #HirolaConservation
Roads are one of the biggest threats to wildlife worldwide. “Even one vehicle can change everything for an animal crossing its natural habitat.
New publication: Ecological niche modeling for determining grass species suitable for Hirola range‐wide restoration and reintroduction in eastern Kenya @SERestoration @wildnetorg @WhitleyAwards @hirola_program onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/re…
Co-existence in action Somali giraffes and the critically endangered hirola share the same rangelands by using nature differently—browsing and grazing in balance. Protecting habitats means protecting this harmony.#SomaliGiraffe #SaveHirola #Coexistence #Conservation
Happy Giving Tuesday! Your generosity today truly makes a difference. Without this work, the hirola could vanish in our lifetime but your support gives them a future. Donate: donate.wildnet.org/?fund=Hirola_a…
𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝟏𝟐; 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐄𝐱𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐞𝐬…. From the moment the rhino is darted to safely immobilizing it, to the team stepping in to blindfold, position, and monitor vital signs—every second is coordinated. Respiration, heart rate, oxygen levels, and temperature are tracked continuously to keep the rhino stable and stress-free. From precision ear-notching and drilling to fit transmitters, to collecting biological samples for research, to marking, documentation, and finally reviving the rhino—every role ensures a safe, successful operation. This is conservation in motion, powered by teamwork! #ThrivingWildlifeForever #PartnershipForConservation
Our committed rangers are restoring degraded rangelands to protect the critically endangered Hirola. With the short rains, new life is returning. Your donation keeps such mission alive donate.wildnet.org/?fund=Hirola_a…"
The short rain in Garissa was brief, but for our Somali giraffes, it was a breath of life. Every drop brings new hope for the wild we work to protect. #SomaliGiraffeProject
Giraffes and livestock now share our rangelands peacefully — a sign that coexistence is taking root. Through community engagement, herders see giraffes as part of the same landscape they depend on. 🌍🦒 #HumanWildlifeCoexistence #SomaliGiraffe
Wild beauty & endless adventure await at Meru National Park, home to the Big Five, the Special Five, and a dazzling diversity of birds and wildlife. Come, make memories in the wild with your loved ones! #TunzaMaliYako #ExploreKenyaParks
Each acacia tree we plant helps restore vital habitat for giraffes and other wildlife. Our goal isn’t just to plant trees — it’s to bring back the landscapes that sustain life. #TreePlanting #GreeningOurPlanet #ClimateAction #Sustainability

We are thrilled to share that our founder and director, Dr. Ali Abdullahi, has been honored with the 2025 Animal Action Award for Lifetime Achievement ifaw.pixieset.com/aaa2025/. This prestigious recognition celebrates his lifelong dedication for endangered hirola antelope.
A young hyena was killed on the Modika–Shimbirey Highway — another tragic case of roadkill. We must act: wildlife crossings, signs, and speed control can save lives. 📍 Somali Giraffe Project #RoadkillAwareness #WildlifeConservation #SomaliGiraffeProject
As we eagerly await the short rains, the Tana River continues to serve as a vital lifeline for both wildlife and local communities. In these anxious and challenging times, its waters provide much-needed relief to giraffes and other wildlife species across Garissa County.
We're testing safe, sustainable giraffe deterrents—like solar lamps, scarecrows & beehives—with farmers facing crop raids. Community feedback is key to building coexistence. 🌾🦒 #GiraffeConservation #HumanWildlifeCoexistence #SomaliGiraffeProject #HirolaConservation
