Celebrating KWS heroes: CS Balala's good news to relatives of KWS officers who died in service

20th December, 2018

This year’s Conservation Heroes Day was marked with pride as Kenya recorded a 90 percent reduction in rhino poaching, thanks to the sacrifice of rangers who are proud of their work. The day also coincided with 72nd anniversary of the establishment of the Nairobi National Park.

A Global Rangers’ Survey conducted early this year showed that over 95% of Kenya’s wildlife rangers are very proud of their work of protecting wildlife heritage despite working over 8 hours in some of the most difficult terrain and remotest places.

First Lady Margaret Kenyatta called for the shutting down of all wildlife trophy markets in the world because they fuel poaching of precious species.

She said the war against poaching will never be won as long as there are countries that encourage and support trade in wildlife trophies.

“The war on poaching will not be won if the countries that drive the demand for these products do not shut the markets. We therefore call upon the international community to prevail upon the countries driving trophy demand globally to shut them down,” said the First Lady at the Kenya Wildlife Service Headquarters in Nairobi.
