Great Grevy’s Rally 2018 Results are out

In January 2018 The Great Grevy's Rally took place in Lewa Wildlife Conservancy and guests from Elewana Lewa Safari Camp were invited to participate in the two day consensus. 23 citizen scientists joined research teams, to help spot and photograph our respective populations of the Grevy's Zebra and Reticulated Giraffe. The results are out and we are delighted to announce that Kenya holds 2,812 Grevy’s and 2,309 reticulated giraffes.

This is an increase from the 2,350 population count from the GGR 2016. The increase is partly a result of enhanced survey effort by all those who participated. Especially in the northern counties we saw an increase because of more teams driving their routes repeatedly and many Grevy's zebra missed in 2016 were 'found' in GGR 2018!
