Comments / pictures

1979: Alyce was killed and both her newborn calf and Amy's were either killed or died as a result of the turmoil. Amelia and her younger brother Adam were
orphaned.

1981: The young females in the AA family had their own baby boom in late '81 early '82. Amelia gave birth to a female calf in December 1981; Amelia and Agatha were 13-14 years old when they became mothers for the first time.

1985: Amelia had a son in November
1985.

1990: There were no births or
deaths in 1989, and in 1990 three calves were born. Amy gave birth to a son in March and Audrey and Amelia gave birth in May.

2000: There was a fairly serious drought in 2000 and five calves born in 1999 and 2000 died as a result. A sixth calf, Amelia’s five-year-old son Aquarius was speared to death by Maasai, probably because of intense competition for the
remaining resources.
