In the ASAL areas of Meru County, water is an expensive basic commodity with livestock from donkey-owning communities going for miles in search of a drink. KENDAT in partnership with @TheBrookeEA have bridged the gap by rehabilitating a water trough at Mumui.

The trough now serves more livestock including donkeys in this community than before, while educating them on the importance of animal freedoms.

In Peri-Urban areas, water is an essential commodity for both domestic and commercial use. Donkeys play a very crucial role in water transportation ensuring these social and economic needs are met.

Relentlessly speaking up against bush donkey slaughter and donkey hide trade amongst all the animal welfare partners; with the AU ban on donkey hide trade in Africa, there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Women in ASAL areas depend on donkeys to fetch water for their household needs. Donkeys carry water for long distances for other livestock too thus these women refer to them as their most valuable assets.

Biting is a form of communication for the donkeys. This is how a mothers corrects her foals behavior, it's part of how they play and its part of how jacks fight over territory.

Beware and get all your meat from a sanitary inspected source. #nyamasafekwaplate
As the Easter holiday approaches, be on the lookout for a hidden danger - illegal donkey bush slaughter meat.
The meat passed off as beef is a product of unsanitary conditions & poses serious health risks, incl. zoonotic diseases like anthrax.
