From April monthly report (security): Our Tanzanian counterparts reported that three armed men had crossed into Kenya along the Sand River on the night of the 23rd. The Narok rangers were unable to respond and so we sent two patrol teams – they found no sign of the bandits, but did come across staff from Ashnil cutting down African olive trees for firewood on the Tanzanian side of the border. The camps all prize the African olive for their campfires because of it’s high oil content, and it burns very well. If we have 60 camps in the Mara all cutting down olive trees there will be none left – presumably Ashnil have depleted all the trees near their camp.
