Lion Guardians

Here is a blog worth visiting. It's about the native people in Kenya who are working as conservationists for lions in that part of the world.

In fact I think this is the best hope for future of conservation in many parts of the world where humans and animals are increasingly coming into conflict over territory. So here it is:

Poor cows. Just saying. They aren't wild so they are easy prey. Have a great day. :)

What a fantastic Project. I've just put a post on my blog as well about it. Thanks Cats I'm sure this will help make more people aware of how communities working together can make a difference for their wildlife. Hope you are well. Liz
