Subject-matter or genetic resource(s)
Not more than   25 tissue samples and not more than 200 fecal samples will be collected in year 1 to be used for the analysis of genomic, nuclear and mitochondrial DNA to further assess giraffe taxonomy, phylogeny, and population dynamics (in partnership with Senckenberg Bik- F, and others). For carcass tissue collection, we propose to store all samples in Zymo DNA/RNA Shield, a preservative verified by the United States Center for Disease Control (CDC) to be a pathogen inactivation and transport medium. The Twiga Walinzi team will also begin opportunistically collecting fecal samples for a research project titled Twiga Walinzi Initiative: Giraffe Conservation in northern Kenya in Support of Kenya’s National Giraffe Strategy.  | Lakipia, Samburu Baringo and Isiolo Counties.
