Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) Problem Animal Control Unit rangers have captured a stray leopard in Kajiado following a string of attacks resulting in the loss of livestock.
Speaking on Monday on X, KWS says the cat had been causing havoc in villages within Kajiado’s Oloompaluani sub-location.
Further, the Agency said the leopard will undergo examination before reintroduction into the wild.
“After its capture, the leopard was skillfully transported to the veterinary clinic at KWS headquarters for a thorough examination to assess its physical condition and physiological needs.”
In addition, the Agency has urged the public to promptly notify its teams of wildlife sightings to support its commitment to promoting harmonious coexistence with communities.
