Several days of game viewing were followed by multiple practical sessions working with various antelope species in planned veterinary interventions - a chance for students to put the theory into practice! Also a helicopter session imitating a darting scenario.

Our next veterinary procedures were to remove horns from 3 white rhino to protect them from poaching- a sad but very necessary intervention! The procedure is painless when carried out correctly.
The interventions were successful and all patients recovered well. Rhino lives saved!
Our 2026 veterinary student cohort did well assisting, and hopefully learned plenty while working with this amazing species! Your participation funded these necessary procedures- thank you!

Time to get hands on!
Tough unsuccessful ground darting first up to learn some valuable lessons, then a Nyala antelope ewe and a rare opportunity to work with a wild spotted hyena that we collared for a research project. Night time darting of shy species is always challenging but thankfully this one went well!

I recently had the privilege of enjoying a 30 year university reunion with my classmates!
Incredible how 30 years has done nothing to fade friendships - everyone gelled like we’d never been apart- so very special! Clearly the many years spent together battling through the veterinary degree forged bonds that will never be broken.
Thank you to everyone that joined in!
Brothers Safaris made the bookings and helped plan the get together.
Can’t wait for the next one in 5 years’ time!
