Salesh (right), a very cool Maasai who works at the center that we stayed at, and a very knowledgeable person about what is happenning in the area, in terms of human and wildlife conflict. On this day, we walked around to five farms and conducted interviews with farmers about their livelihoods and what they think will happen in the future concerning development and the subdivision of lands.


Getting ready for bed inside the boma we stayed in during the Maasai homestay. The bed was constucted of a stretched cowhide and reeds for cushioning.


Max, also getting ready for bed. We shared the cowhide, which is traditional for men of the same age
