‘Nature’ does it again!!
Category: Milgis lugga, Samburu | Date: Aug 30 2008 | By: milgistrust
On the 10 of August I wrote about how amazing nature was at saving the situation when all seems lost!! THANKS to Nature!! Then on the 18 August, I told you how the people had decided to risk moving back to where the attacks had happened the month before… Better than letting the stock die of starvation..sorry, NO PICTURES again… Of course some of the stock has to stay back for the families to live off… Milk is most important for their survival.. and of course meat..The Goats and sheep that have stayed back are looking desperately thin, but as the title of this blog entails…The day is saved again… All along the sides of the Luggas the fruit from the Savadora Persica and Cordia Sinensis is in full swing.. … The people have moved there stock to live on the luggas, near the water and the fruit…Of course all the wildlife as well.. notably Baboons, vervet monkeys, thousands of Ravens… Civet cats, porcupines, any thing that likes fruit!! Its very dry now, and its really a miracle how our friend ‘nature’ does it..

I Helen Douglas-Dufresne, have been doing walking camel safaris for the last 20 years in the Mathews-Ndoto region having witnessed the destruction of the Milgis ecosystem by the local communities who were unaware of its implications, either we did something or not- so the Milgis trust was born!
