Khanyisa receives blood from Zindoga, a young male bull of the Jabulani Herd.

When Khanyisa's condition turned, we sent a blood sample for testing at the same time as her dung sample. Fortunately, blood sample testing has a quicker turnaround time than the dung sampling, which we are still waiting for results from.

The blood test results showed lower albumin in her blood, which could mean she was not absorbing protein from her diet. We decided together with Dr Rogers to do a blood transfusion to not only get her albumin levels up but to help increase her immunity too. Her cortisol levels tested in her blood were low (stress hormones), so we have been able to remove stress as a possible cause to the diarrhea she had been experiencing.
