On February 7th, eight critically endangered mountain bongo were loaded onto a charter aircraft bound for Kenya, the next step in a decades-long international effort to return this species to its native forests.

Then, while taxiing for departure, the flight was aborted.

What followed were 14 tense hours on the tarmac, an emergency response effort by Rare Species Conservatory Foundation staff, and difficult decisions that tested every safeguard built into this program.

In this episode of Conservation Beyond the Cage, we walk through what happened, what went wrong, and what we learned. We discuss accountability, animal welfare, crisis response, and the reality that conservation at this level is complex, expensive, and sometimes messy.

Most importantly, we talk about what comes next.

The mission to return the mountain bongo to Kenya continues — stronger, clearer, and more determined than ever.
