The holistic approach commits tourism, livestock and other commercial enterprises to building local livelihoods and enhance ecosystem integrity. Borana Conservancy has assisted the funding, development, marketing and management of community-owned conservation initiatives like Tassia, Oreteti and Il N’gwesi who work collaboratively with the Kenya Wildlife Service to ensure their neighbours are not adversely affected by human wildlife conflict.

Borana Conservancy is host to over 50 species of mammals including some of the world’s rarest animals, including black rhino, wild dog, leopard, cheetah and lion.For keen ornithologists, Borana is home to over 350 species of birds, including a variety of eagles, vultures and the stunningly bright superb starling. Borana also is host to a working cattle ranch. Increasingly acknowledged as one of the most important areas for biodiversity in Kenya, the wildlife population densities in the Laikipia region rank only second to the internationally renowned Maasai Mara ecosystem. The diversity of large mammals is higher than in any other part in Kenya, hosting the highest populations of endangered species, back rhino (half of Kenya’s total population) Grevy’s zebra (70% of the world’s population) and reticulated giraffe.

Security

Borana Conservancy is proud to report zero poaching incidents over the last six years. This is largely due to Borana’s community focused conservation efforts, along with the dedicated team of over 120 male and female rangers. Such a high ranger density is crucial to anti-poaching efforts and the effective biological management and monitoring of rhino. This conservation success story could not have been achieved without support from key conservation partners: Save The Rhino International, For Rangers, The Kenya Wildlife Service and Lewa Wildlife Conservancy.
