As spring arrives, bringing new life and color to the world, it reminds us of the delicate balance that sustains all living things. This season of renewal aligns beautifully with Eid, a time of generosity, gratitude, and compassion, and Nowruz, the Persian New Year, which celebrates new beginnings and the harmony between humanity and nature.

Together, these moments invite us not only to reflect on our lives, but also on our responsibility to protect the natural world. The same earth that blooms each spring is the one that sustains us all, and its preservation depends on the choices we make every day.

May this season inspire us to care more deeply for our environment, to respect the richness of life around us, and to act with kindness—toward each other and toward the planet. Wishing for a world where renewal is not only celebrated, but protected, and where peace extends to all people and all living beings.

The wildlife of Ethiopia is the result of millions of years of evolutionary processes. Mammals, birds, reptiles, fish, plants, and invertebrates all play vital roles in the dynamics of fragile ecosystems, such as the fertile plains of the Southern Ethiopian Rift Valley, where Senkelle Swayne’s Hartebeest Sanctuary is located.

On the occasion of World Wildlife Day, we are reminded of the urgent responsibility to conserve biodiversity and protect species whose survival depends entirely on our commitment and action.

Senkelle Swayne’s Hartebeest Sanctuary was established primarily to conserve the endangered Swayne’s hartebeest and the wildlife community it supports. This large African grassland antelope, endemic to Ethiopia, is currently found only in Maze National Park and Senkelle Swayne’s Hartebeest Sanctuary, and its population continues to decline.

This film captures the powerful moment when an adult male awakens from anesthesia after being captured during the first health survey ever conducted on this species — a crucial step toward understanding its health status and ensuring its long-term survival.

As 2026 starts for us at full speed, with this ostrich release in the wild, with it clearly misunderstanding the security briefing, but no accidents, plenty of laughs and with a “gentle” reminder, to our brave cameramen, who’s really in charge. 🤣🤣🤣 Happy New Year and a great Christmas to all Orthodox Christians around the world.

Rewilding is also happening in Ethiopia. In May this year we have done in collaboration with the and the first translocation of reedbuck in the region. Reedbuck is one of the species that originates some of the most significant agriculture damage in the region and therefore one of the most important species involved in human-animal conflict across Ethiopia. Over a period of several months, plans have been made to safely capture this species in areas where major agriculture damage have been recorded. Several release areas have been defined by and one of which was . We are very proud to have been part of this initiative to mitigate an important human-animal conflict and implement the necessary measures for a better future.

Learning with the best: This week we have travelled to Madrid, Spain to participated in the “Seminario de Integración de Biodiversidad en el Patrimonio Arquitectónico”, organized by the and , because is important to find solution for a healthier urban environment. Cities and architectural structures also need rewilding.

Today around the world we celebrate the Endangered species day, and what a better way to celebrate it, than to share with you a sucessful rescue of 4 male mountain nyalas done in May 2021. All mountain nyalas have been treated under general anestesia and simultaneously able to collected valuable clinical information for the future management of this endangered endemic species with less than 4000 individuals. This pioneer work of this afroalpine species, was done at 3200 meters high, to remove snares that was causing severe soft tissue trauma and if not assisted, all individuals would have had a slow, painful and agonizing death, thanks to the valuable colaboration of the .ethiopia and Ethiopian Wildlife Conservation Authority, which without their quick response, this history would have had a very different ending.

On the 10th May 2023 we have launch the first health checks of wildlife in several wildlife parks in close coordination with . This first pioneer study was done at Senkele Swayne´s Hartebeest Santuary. The species we have focus on was the Swayne´s hartebeest. This is an endangered antelope endemic to Ethiopia, with only two populations known, Senkele is still the stronghold for this species, with no more than 300 individuals, but sharply declining. This study will allow a better understanding of the dangerous facing this species, the measures necessary to preserve and manage much better this species and help future translocations to form other important metapopulations across the country. We will give you, very soon, an update on the second phase of this study for this extremely important species.

We would like to thank to:
All Senkele Swayne´s Hartebeest Santuary staff

In April 2024 we have initiated the first health survey of some of the most critical populations of wild animals at the national parks and protected areas across Ethiopia. Our first target was one of the last wild populations of ostriches present in the horn of Africa. The Abijatta-Shalla National Park is where this study took place, was done in collaboration with Ethiopian Wildlife Conservation Authority. This study was the first study done in the horn of Africa regarding the health survey of a species that has been declining across the region, mostly due to lost of habitat, disease, hunting and collection of eggs by local communities. Hopefully this study, will create a better knowledge of the threats and needs of this species and allow real conservation measures to be implemented across the region to safeguard the last populations of this remarkable avian species.

Today we celebrate the World Veterinary day and we would like to share with you the enormous privilegie of recently have assisted the Ethiopian Wildlife Conservation Authority to perform the first health survey for the Mountain Nyalas (Tragelaphus buxtoni). This is an endangered antelope native to Ethiopia, which one of the largest remaining populations is located in Bale Mountains National Park, where this study took place. This national park have been recently classified by UNESCO has a World Heritage site. Populations of Mountain Nyalas have been decreasing and presently there are no more than 4000 individuals. This species is endemic of the unique Afroalpine ecosystem in Ethiopia. Today is a day of awareness of the work veterinarians do across the world, sometimes in very challenging conditions, specially when working with wildlife in the field; but also take the opportunity to celebrate the importance of this almost unknow species, but no less important than other much iconic species, and underline that is in the verge of disapear forever, if not major actions would take place.
