Lion tracking with the Guardians
Category: lion research fieldwork | Date: May 24 2008 | By: lionguardians
A few days ago we went out to track lions with two of the Lion Guardians Olubi and Mokoi. We drove for hours, regularly stopping to try and pick up radio signals from the roof of the car. We were trying to find the large pride of 10 lions (with collared lion Nempakai) that we had seen last week. But despite our best efforts, we couldn’t locate them.
We even went all the way to this high point, Loosikitok, where you can look out over the group ranch, and all the way across to Amboseli National Park, and still couldn’t pick up a signal. This is maybe where the pride has headed back to for the moment.
