Sauwah-We also have some poachers from within kenya, but the major threat is coming across the common boundary.It is a shared calamity both in kenya and Tanzania.Both Tanapa and Mara Conservancy has come together inorder to combat this common problem, which is threatening the existence of Mara and Serengeti. Now that we`re experiencing financial hardships, the fight is not so effective, therefore poachers and cattle rustlers are now becoming an issue. Thank you everyone for your generous donations, for without your assistance we could not make.

J'espère que tu vas bien, et a mon avis c'est vous qui est l'hero, pas moi! Hope to see you all soon. Salutations a vous, la famille, et les bandits! Paula, thank you so much for the links, those schemes look very interesting indeed - I will look into them. When are you back in Kenya? Hello Sauwah, poachers coming in from Tanzania is a big problem, however it is for bush meat and not trophy hunting. There is quite a lot of tension between the communities up on the escarpment and those on the Tanzanian side, because of the rustling. Merci beaucoup Diddy.

I didn't know much poaching is from Tanzania. What did the kenya government do with this problem with the poachers from Tanzania? Wonder is there a bad feeling towards those who sneak in and out of Kenya from Tanzania? These poachers or cattle thievs are worse than the predators who kill the villagers' cattle since lions/leopards are only animals that do not know any better. And afterall, they do it to survive and feed their families unlike humans who kill for trophies. job well done! wish the tourists would return to the wildlife in Kenya sooner if not now.
