The sheep were part of her remaining flock after the recent drought decimated most of her animals.

“In the year 2019, lions invaded our homestead and killed 12 of my sheep, which have not been compensated up to now.  The wildlife is impoverishing me since livestock is my only source of livelihood,” said Kishanto, a widow.

In addition to compensation, she appealed to the KWS to help her with lighting her home with solar to avoid the recurrence of such incidents.

Fencing her homestead has not been effective in keeping off the wildlife.
