Snared Elephant Success – CLZ
Conservation Lower Zambezi (CLZ) received information that an elephant had been caught in a snare. It was injured, dragging a log behind itself, and clearly in pain.
After multiple searches, the DNPW/CLZ officers, assisted by their K9 Dog Unit, managed to locate the injured elephant. A DNPW vet was brought in and the snare was successfully removed, with the wound being cleaned and treated. The elephant now has a high chance of survival in the Lower Zambezi National Park.
CLZ thanked the Olsen Animal Trust for providing funds for the emergency operation, along with the DNPW Vet Department for their skills and expertise to save the elephant.
