We can never wish them away, elephants are important mammals.
Like humans, they love to talk to each other by vocalizing a range of calls and sounds.

He said Nyakweri Forest is an endangered forest because there is no clear cutline and he is working with the County Government to stream line the matter. He noted Nyakweri Forest is a critical subsystem #BetterWithForests #IDF2019Ke #InternationalDayOfForests #IntlForestDay

The women in Mararianta village #maasaimara #kenya produce charcoal briquettes of cow dong, leaves and water instead of cutting down trees. We in Karen Blixen Camp Trust are happy to support this great initiative.

It's sad seeing Mt. Kenya being destroyed by fires.
@KeForestService CCF earlier on said the fire had almost been contained in some parts of the water towers. The biggest challenge is strong winds making it hard to put out the fires.

3/3 The school has taken up an initiative of planting 15 trees as a replacement. We thank the management and community of Premier Academy Nairobi for the honor bestowed to Prof. Maathai through this simple yet noble act. In her words, it's the little things that make a difference
