It was an exciting time for David and company as he had an opportunity to show the warden what was going on in the forest and its environs.
The warden- Mr. Korir with the assistant chief - Mrima wa ndege and a ranger.
The new Arabuko- Sokoke Warden- Mr. Dickson Korir- had a chance to experience real bush life as he set his eyes in bringing positive change to the management of the forest through KWS - Kenya Wildlife Service. Well done bwana Korir!

The campsite was set in the harsh terrain of the forest from Mrima wa ndege to Bamba to Ganze even till Sokoke and Ngerenye.

He is keen to enhance ecotourism and education at the forest station which is a big step towards enhanching conservation of the forerst. We reckon if more and more people see the value of the forest and understand its importance than we will be experincing less destruction of the forest.
