With only 8 per cent of Kenya’s landmass being protected for wildlife conservation, wild animals move in and out of these areas in search of pasture and water during certain periods within the year. Kenya Wildlife Service has a mobile rapid response team established to ensure swift response to human-wildlife conflict incidents. Similarly, conservation awareness programmes contribute towards enhancing positive perception of wildlife conservation.
