Remarkable conservation projects in Northern Kenya

Remarkable conservation projects in Northern Kenya
February 22, 2016
Most people have never heard of the hirola. The fawn-colored antelope is a shy animal, with a long thin face and spectacled eyes. And yet this unassuming creature is the center of what may be one of the most successful conservation efforts in recent history, as well as the heroes – the equally unassuming Somali pastoralists who live alongside them on the East bank of the Tana River.
The Abdullah Somali community that run the Ishaqbini Conservancy in north-east Kenya have always had a fondness for the hirola, whose docile nature has earned it the nickname of ‘the stupid antelope’ in other communities. It is endemic to north-east Kenya and south-west Somalia, but populations have declined by over 80% since 1990. Numerous factors, including disease, hunting and loss of grasslands, have contributed to this.
