On October 29, two Rothschild giraffes were moved from Soysambu Conservancy to their new home, Tindress Wildlife Sanctuary in Solai, Nakuru County.

 The two giraffes joined seven others at Tindress wildlife sanctuary and the translocation is part of efforts to increase the population of the endangered Rothschild giraffe.
