Kenya Wildlife Service head of species Patrick Omondi (2nd L) holds a GPS collar removed from an elephant at the Maasai Mara National Reserve March 18, 2008. Elephants had been fitted with the collars in August 2006 to monitor their ranging and movement patterns and establish whether the population remained in the Mara region. The exercise on Tuesday was to de-collar the elephants and study their movements based on information gathered from the the collar. REUTERS/Antony Njuguna (KENYA)
