Meet the ‘water guy’ who saves many thirsty animals in Africa

Patrick Kilonzo Mwalua, a pea farmer, brings truckloads of water to parched animals every day. And animals flock to Patrick as soon as they hear the sound of his truck. Every day, he transports 3,000 gallons of water.



“I saw the waterholes were dry and animals were hanging around them looking quite desperate in June last year when visiting the Tsavo,” Mwalua told Nairobi Wire. ” Because there is no water, the animals are fully reliant on people. They’ll be gone if we don’t aid them.”
