This is to say thank you very much to all who made the work in the forest possible. We especially want to thank Nature Kenya and all the Nature Kenya members who participated, Friends of Arabuko-Sokoke members, Kenya wildlife service for their support, Watamu turtle watch, A Rocha Kenya and the Arabuko-Sokoke forest guide association. With all your combined effort we were able to achieve a great task of clearing up to 3 Km of nature trail at the Elephant track, it could not have been possible without you. Thank you so much for the time and effort you all put in this.
Long live Arabuko-Sokoke Forest!
Here are some photos to sum it all up!

A very brief but extremely heart-felt post, this one… for the incredibly generous recent donation from Nancy for her gift to David’s work with Friends of ASF… It has actually come at a point when we are really feeling the pinch of lack of tourists who buy a few bits and bods to generate a few funds to cover the basic costs of the organisation including fuel for David’s motorbike, covering accident / health insurance for him, supporting the small shop we operate at the Visitor Centre where the bits and bods are sold. The drop in tourists has been due to the mad political chaos we’ve experienced in Kenya the past few months and esp at the start of the year. It meant a 95% drop in tourists pretty much and as a result all tourism-related activities have suffered. This generous donation will really make a huge difference to push us through this time and set us up for the next few months. THANK you!
