KWS should be focused on safety of humans near parks

Tourism is among the highest of Kenya's foreign exchange earners.

Many people are employed by the Kenya Wildlife Service to protect the animals from poachers who kill elephants and rhinos for their precious tusks. But a bigger problem is the wild animals attacking human beings and little action by the service.

Let KWS work with the communities to safeguard the lives of those living near parks, forests and rivers. The service should monitor animals to keep them from entering human settlements. The state should also compensate victims of wildlife-human conflict.
