Dry Season Count of eastern Kajiado

In early October 2010, the Amboseli Conservation Program conducted a dry season aerial census of the Greater Amboseli Ecosystem.  As with the wet season count in February, this count builds on the long history of wildlife monitoring in the area and provides an insight into the nature of the post drought recovery in Amboseli.  In particular, it highlights the role of Amboseli National Park as a dry season reserve and the importance of connectivity between ecosystems for herbivore recovery following catastrophic drought.
