A Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) ranger stands next to a carcass of a buffalo that died from the prolonged drought at Tsavo West national park, southeast of Kenya's capital Nairobi, October 9, 2009. Successive failed rain seasons in Kenya have led to a drought that experts say is the worst in the country since 1996. REUTERS/Thomas Mukoya (KENYA ANIMALS DISASTER ENVIRONMENT IMAGES OF THE DAY)
