Baobab
Trust's approach to wildlife conservation has been to demonstrate its
value as a sustainable resource. The introduction of a variety of
animals into the rehabilitated land has been a vital part of building a
self-sustaining eco-system.
The Trust has
established a small nature sanctuary at Nguu Tatu (Three Hills) an area
adjoining a shanty town development, close to Mombasa. The Sanctuary is
now a home to a big number of ostriches, elands, oryx, water bucks,
giraffes and camels.
The
geological formation dates back to the ancient Gondwana land when
Madagascar was still part of the mega continent 150 million years ago
during the time of dinosaurs. When many ammonites and other fossil
species from microscopic to over 1m were living in the seas. |
