Wildlife Conservation in Kenya

AEI are fantastic! When I signed up to go to Somali-Kenya for two months to learn about and participate in anti-poaching and long term conservation measures in rural tribal Africa they spared no effort throughout the entire planning process or time that I was there to make sure my stay was informative, comfortable, and fun! I was set up in a beautifully large tent with my own personal kitchen hut and toiletry facilities, the rangers I was working with were just a shout away from where I was staying, and I was kept in good supply of my own personal food and water, although I was also welcome to dine with the rangers at breakfast before we went out for morning patrol, lunch when we got back, and an evening meal after evening patrol, which was a nicety I whole-heartedly accepted. The rangers I was working with were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable and felt safe, I have very fond memories of long talks into the night over a fire with some newly made very close friends who I will never forget! The AEI team did absolutely fabulously in setting up this experience for me and I strongly urge anybody who wants to break into the field of conservation ecological management to take a look at the long list of experiences that AEI offers, based on the trip I took they're all incredible!!
