Kenya's black rhino populations are bordered by the brink, and in Masai Mara, quiet conservation success is taking shape. Sarah's camp has supported Mara's dedicated rhino sinolangers for over a decade.
Over the past few years, the Safari Collection Footprint Trust has helped accelerate progress and supports two rhinoceros ears and tagging operations to fit over 20 eastern black rhinoceros in Mara with GPS transmitters. These high-tech trackers are changing the way rhinos are monitored and protected, along with the deployment of “arearrangers” (real-time monitoring systems), setup of the Lorawan network (long-range wide area network), and building a new Maasai Mara protection center.
It's all part of a larger collaboration between the Narock County government, various other stakeholders, donors and conservation-driven tourism partners like the Safari Collection.
And it's working. Through collaboration, we are approaching a future where the at-risk Black Saino not only survives, but also thrives.
