   A Bombardier DHC-8-200 from SafariLink did a runway excursion Friday during   
   the landing on Kichwa Tembo Airstrip, after the aircraft collided with two   
   wildebeest. The animals were on the runway when the plane tried to land.   
       
   The aircraft, with registration 5Y-SLM, was en route from Nairobi to the   
   airstrip at Maasai Mara, a famous Kenyan nature park, when the incident   
   occurred.   
       
   Due to the collision with the wildebeest, a wheel leg broke off the landing   
   gear, causing the aircraft to land next to the runway. According to   
   SafariLink, none of the passengers or crew were injured. The two wildebeest   
   got off less well.
