When I meet Dr Sharon Mulindi, senior veterinary officer at the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS), nothing about her quiet confidence hints at the intense, unpredictable experiences she’s had with wild animals.

From darting elephants in the bush to treating lions with dental pain, her days are anything but ordinary. She doesn’t just treat animals she’s part of an elite team navigating the intersection of medicine, conservation, and raw survival in the wild.
