The Mara Conservancy, a non-profit organisation, depends entirely on tourism revenue for the protection of 510 km2 of an area known as the Mara Triangle. Widely recognised as one of Kenya’s most efficient and transparent conservation authorities, in seven years the Mara Conservancy has virtually eliminated heavy poaching, which had previously made the area unsafe for tourists and rangers, as well as building over 150km of roads and employing 75 rangers and auxiliary staff from the local communities.

Joseph Kimojino is a conservationist for the Mara Conservancy. He has a Twitter account, which is where he posted this link to a video of migrating zebras. All of the stripes make me a little dizzy.

The spam comments have gotten overwhelming over here lately, so I’ve added another hoop for commenters to jump through. It’s a reCaptcha thingamabob, which should stop the robots. Darn robots.

Now I’m going to finish watching “Lost.”
