Laikipia, rolling out from the slopes of Mount Kenya through to the rim of the Great Rift Valley, epitomizes a vast landscape of successful wildlife conservation overlain by a diverse - and fascinating - cultural setting. Here, elephants follow centuries-old migration corridors while rare species like Grevy's zebra, reticulated giraffe, African painted dogs and black rhino find precious refuge. More than 80 mammal and 450 bird species comprise Laikipia's incredible wildlife display, and all live within a working landscape where lions live side-by-side with Boran cattle, and mixed herds of livestock, zebra, impala, gazelles, and tiny dikdik are a common sight. Coexistence and respect for wild animals and wilderness is the Laikipia mantra. This book celebrates Laikipia - its wealth of wildlife, plants, people and stunning landscapes. It examines the biological and social complexity of this spectacular region and the challenges of maintaining the beauty and magic that make Laikipia unique.
