Inside the Nairobi Wild Birds Hospital Saving Cranes and Other Endangered Species

At the wild birds clinic in Nairobi’s Karen estate, veterinarian Dr Zoe Gibbs examines three grey crowned cranes brought in in alarming condition. Their wings have been clipped and their bodies are emaciated; one has a bleeding wound where a growing feather was pulled out, and another has a leg injury caused by string tied around it. Gibbs checks their breast muscles and injuries as they arrive.
