Ng'ombe zimasungidwa usiku wonse mu "bomas" zotetezeka kuonetsetsa kuti adani, omwe tsopano ali ofala kwambiri pa malo osungiramo nyama, alibe mwayi wosokoneza ziweto kuti azidya, koma ng'ombe zimadya masana pamodzi ndi masewerawo m'magulu ang'onoang'ono omwe amayang'aniridwa ndi abusa. Kuphatikizika kumeneku n’kodabwitsa kwambiri kuchitira umboni ndi kulimbikitsa m’njira zambiri, chifukwa zimene zidzachitikire kumeneko m’zaka zikubwerazi zidzayanjidwa ndi mafamu angapo a gulu la Amasai kunja kwa Masai Mara ndi Amboseli, amene pakali pano akulingalirabe chochita ndi malo awo. , mwina kusandutsa malo osungirako nyama zakuthengo - kuwapangira ndalama zambiri kuposa kuweta ng'ombe zawo - kapena kukhala malo osungiramo ng'ombe ophatikizana monga momwe adawonetsera ku Ol Pejeta, kapena ngati asungabe mbali yoweta ng'ombe, yomwe ndi wodzala ndi chiwopsezo poganizira zomwe zakhala zikuyenda kwanthawi yayitali. Ndipo pofika kumapeto kwa Ol Pejeta, kuyambira kuphatikizidwa kwathunthu kwa bizinesi ya ng'ombe ndi zokopa alendo, pali kusintha kwakukulu kopitilira 30 peresenti - osati koyipa munthawi yamavuto azachuma.

Ol Pejeta nthawi ina anali m'modzi mwa ogulitsa ma wheel 70s ndi 80s, Adnan Kashoggi, koma famuyo ndi nyumba zake zidasintha pomwe adalephera kubweza ngongole zomwe adatenga malemu "Tiny" Rowland wa panthawiyo LonRho, mtheradi. wofanana ngati sali wopambana pakuchita ma wheeling komanso m'modzi mwa ochita bwino kwambiri ku Africa kontinenti ndi mabizinesi ake osiyanasiyana ndikusamalira mosamala kulumikizana kwa ndale ku mipando yonse yayikulu yamphamvu mu Africa yonse.

Kashoggi mwadzidzidzi anapeza ma jets ake ali pansi, ndi ofunika ku Kenya, katundu wake kuphatikizapo Mt. Kenya Safari Club ndi Ol Pejeta ranch yomwe inatengedwa ndi LonRho.

Zambiri zasintha kuyambira masiku amenewo ku Kenya, ndithudi; LonRho yakhala LonZim, ndipo Ol Pejeta tsopano ikuyendetsedwa, m'malo mwa eni ake atsopano a Ol Pejeta Conservancy Limited, ndi Richard Vigne, yemwe kale anali wokhala ku Uganda, ndi gulu lake. Mwini wa Ol Pejeta wagawika pakati pa Flora ndi Fauna International yaku UK, The Arcus Foundation, ndi Lewa Conservancy, ndipo kampaniyo imagwira ntchito ngati bungwe lopanda phindu, pomwe palibe eni ake kapena owongolera adalandira zopindula kapena malipiro aliwonse. , zofanana kwambiri ndi Fund ya Rhino ku Uganda. Chifukwa chake, ndalama zonse zotsala zandalama zimabwezeredwa m'nyumbayi kuti zithandizire pakulipirira zowonongera zodula kwambiri komanso kukonzanso kwa zomangamanga nthawi zonse.

Flora ndi Fauna International, kupatula kukhala ogawana nawo, nawonso ndi othandizana nawo pachitukuko, pamodzi ndi opereka ena osiyanasiyana, omwe amathandizira kusungirako zinthu zambiri pamapulatifomu apadziko lonse lapansi komanso ndi chithandizo chothandiza komanso thandizo lazachuma, ngati kuli kofunikira.

Kwa zaka zambiri, Ol Pejeta yakhala ntchito yaikulu kwambiri yosungiramo zipembere komanso ntchito yoweta ku Eastern Black Rhino, ndipo tsopano ili ndi zinyama 80 pa malo odyetserako ziweto pamene pali mitundu yambiri ya Southern White ikukhala pamodzi ndi azisuweni awo mosangalala. Mitundu ya Kum'mawa ndi "osasakaza" ndipo ya Kum'mwera ndi "odyera msipu" motero sikhala ndi mikangano pa magwero a chakudya, zomwe ndizofunikira pankhani yonyamula mphamvu za malo osungira.

Komabe, chomwe chachitika posachedwa kwambiri chinali kukhazikitsidwa kwa mitundu yosowa kwambiri ya zipembere, Northern White, zinayi zomwe zidaperekedwa ndi Czech Republic mu Disembala, pomwe zidafika ndi ndege pabwalo la ndege lapadziko lonse ku Nairobi, zisananyamulidwe. Pa Pejeta. Kumeneko tsopano apanga nyumba yokhazikika ku Ol Pejeta, ndipo mwachiyembekezo adzachita bwino kuswana. Zina zinayi zatsala m'malo osungiramo nyama zaku Czech, koma zimaganiziridwa kuti ndi zakale kwambiri kuti zitha kubereka.

Anthu omalizira a ku Northern White omwe atsala, monga momwe mtolankhaniyu amanenera m’mbuyomu, anaphedwa ndi zigawenga za ku Uganda ku Garamba National Park ku Congo, omwe - atathamangitsidwa kumpoto kwa Uganda ndi Southern Sudan - anamanga msasa ku Garamba. Ndege yomwe inakonzedwa kale, yomwe injini za ndege zikuyenda kale, kuti ziwabweretse ku Ol Pejeta ndikupita kumalo otetezeka mpaka mikhalidwe ya ku Congo itatha kutetezedwa, inathetsedwa ndi mtumiki wa boma la Kinshasa panthawiyo, yemwe adadzinyenga kuti. Congo inatha kutsimikizira kutetezedwa kwa nyama zosowa izi ndipo inasocheretsa dziko lonse panthawiyo chifukwa cha luso lawo, kudzipereka kwawo kwenikweni, ndi cholinga chenicheni.

Kafukufuku wam'mlengalenga ndi wapansi akupitilira ku Garamba, pomwe zigawenga zathamangitsidwa kunja kwa pakiyo komanso kutali, koma mpaka pano, palibe zizindikiro za Northern White wamoyo zomwe zapezeka zokhumudwitsa omwe akuyembekeza mopanda chiyembekezo komanso ngati nkhonya. kutsimikizira ena omwe amakhulupirira kuti apitadi mpaka kalekale.

Chifukwa chake, Azungu anayi aku Northern White omwe tsopano ali ku Ol Pejeta ndi mwayi umodzi wokhawo wopulumutsira zamoyozo, ndipo potsatira mbiri yachitetezo, ngati sangakwanitse, palibe amene angatero. Wondilandira, Richard Vigne, anandithandiza kukhala pafupi ndi Azungu a Kumpoto kuti ndisamangowawona komanso kulankhula ndi alonda awo ndi alonda awo kuti ndidziŵe za mmene akhalira m’malo awo atsopano ndi okhalitsa. pa Ol Pejeta. Richard adandipangitsa kuti ndiyende ndi mwana wamasiye waku Eastern Black yemwe adandibweretsa kumalo osungirako nyama masabata angapo apitawo pomwe adabwerera kumalo osungiramo usiku ndi womuyang'anira kuchokera pamayendedwe awo atsiku ndi tsiku. Zinandikumbutsa za zovuta za kasungidwe ka nyama zakuthengo ndi udindo wathu wozisamalira bwino, kotero kuti mibadwo yamtsogolo ya anthu idzasangalalebe ndi zomwe zikuwoneka ngati zabwinobwino kwa ine ndi mbadwo wanga.

Ol Pejeta ili ndi malo ogona pa malo owoneka bwino omwe alendo odzaona alendo amagona kapena masiku angapo, ndipo makamaka, owonera masewera akhazikitsa Porini Rhino Camp pakona kokongola kwa Conservancy, kutali ndi maso, kutali ndi mabasi oyendera. ndi kukhala pakati pa nyama zambiri za m’chigwa, giraffe, zipembere zambirimbiri, ndi chiŵerengero chokulirapo cha zilombo zolusa, monga momwe zinachitira umboni m’nthaŵi yaposachedwapa. M'malo mwake, aliyense amene akufuna kuwona "zazikulu zisanu" mkati mwa nkhokwe imodzi ndi nthawi yochepa, ayenera kuganizira za ulendo wapamsewu kapena ndege kuchokera ku Wilson Airport ndi SafariLink, kupita ku Ol Pejeta Conservancy. Apa, zowonekazo zatsimikizika, ndipo kaya mumsewu wa 3 ½ mpaka 4 maola kuchokera ku Nairobi kapena pamlengalenga mu mphindi 35 kupita ku Nanyuki Aerodrome, alendo adzalandira mphotho zambiri zomwe zikudikirira iwo, masewera ambiri, ndi zina mwazaulendo zabwino kwambiri. zokumana nazo m'misasa zomwe zilipo lero pamsika ku Kenya.

Monga malo a mlongo wawo ku Amboseli, Rhino Camp imapatsanso alendo mwayi wokhala ndi mahema 6 okha opangidwa mwachizolowezi, okhala m'mphepete mwa mtsinje ndikuyang'ana dzenje, lomwe makamaka nyengo yachilimwe, ndi malo ochitirako masewera. kuti athetse ludzu lawo.

Kusamaliranso mwatsatanetsatane, monga ku Amboseli, kunali kochititsa chidwi - kupereka chitsanzo chimodzi, pambuyo pa usiku woyamba, wozizira kwambiri chifukwa cha kukwera kwa mamita 2,000 pamwamba pa nyanja, ndinanena kuti botolo la madzi otentha linalandiridwa kwambiri. , koma ndikanalakalaka nditakhala nawo ambiri - kungopeza atatu atafola pansi pa duvet yanga ndi mabulangete usiku wachiwiri. Zimakhala zotentha mpaka kutenthetsa usiku wonse chifukwa zimadzazidwa ndi madzi otentha ndiyeno zimayikidwa m'chivundikiro chotchinga kuti chisunge kutentha kwamtengo wapatali mpaka m'mawa.

Chakudya cham'mawa chimakonzedwa kuyitanitsa ndipo chimaphatikizapo zonse zomwe mtima wa munthu ungafune, ndipo ngati mukupita kokasewera masewera am'mawa, masangweji amakonzedwa, monga zipatso ndi mabotolo okhala ndi tiyi kapena khofi, kuti musamadye chakudya cham'mawa musanadye. munthu akabwerera kumsasa.

Ndikuyamikira wophika wa Chipembere cha Porini chifukwa cha mwendo wake wowotcha wa mwanawankhosa, umene unali wokoma motsimikiza, monga momwe zinalili, chakudya chake chonse, kuphatikizapo zolengedwa za supu zimene anandipatsa ine ndi apaulendo ena aŵiri amene ndinagawana nawo msasawo pamene ndinali kukhala.

Masewerawa amathamangira kumalo osungirako zachilengedwe adadalitsidwa ndi zowona zambiri, kuphatikiza akamwile awiri nthawi imodzi ndikuwonanso kwina kosiyana pambuyo pake, koma tinawonanso zipembere kuthengo, ndipo chosangalatsa kwambiri chinali mwayi wodutsa malo osungira nyama. .

Ma tracker anga, mawanga, ndi owongolera anali oyamba, odziwa bwino mbalame zomwe zimapezeka kumalo osungiramo nyama, komanso kukhala ndi mavoti asiliva monga momwe Kenya Professional Safari Guide Association amaperekera. Tinayenda kwa maola angapo mozungulira mozungulira msasawo, ndikufika pampanda wozungulira, ndipo ndinatha kudziwonera ndekha "mipata" yomwe idapangidwa kuti ithandizire kusamuka ndikutuluka m'malo osungiramo zinthu, chinthu chofunikira kwambiri chothandizira kusamuka komwe kumasungidwa mumasewera, ndikuwonetsetsa kuti nthawi zonse pamakhala gwero la majini atsopano omwe amalowetsedwa mu anthu okhala pachitetezo. Zigwa zakale za Laikipia zinali mphambano yofunika kwambiri yosamukira njovu ndi nyama zina kuchokera ku phiri la Kenya kupita ku mapiri a Aberdare komanso nyama zosamukira ku Northern Frontier District, monga momwe zinkatchulidwira kale, ndi umboni wakuti njovu. adabwera ndikupita ku Marsabit ndikubwerera, monga amafotokozera momveka bwino ndi owongolera anga.

Mipata imeneyi imayang'aniridwa m'mawa uliwonse kuti adziwe zomwe zili m'nthaka yosasunthika kuti ndi zinyama ziti zomwe zinalowa kapena kutuluka ndipo malipotiwa amalumikizana pofuna kufufuza ndi kuyang'anira. Chimodzi mwazinthu zabwino kwambiri, pakuyenda, chinali kukumana mobwerezabwereza ndi mbalame zamasiye, pamene amuna amtundu wawo wakuda adavina pakatikati pamlengalenga, kupenya komanso kudalitsidwa nthawi zambiri powulukira m'nkhalango ndi mbalame. mkazi wokondedwa.

Koma masiku ano, mapiri a Aberdare ali ndi mipanda ndipo akukonzekera kuti mwinanso kutchinga mapiri onse a m'munsi mwa phiri la Kenya, kuti nyama zisamalowe m'malo oteteza zachilengedwe komanso m'malo oteteza zachilengedwe, omwe amachoka pamalo ena okwera kupita kumapiri.

Ndipo polankhula za Phiri la Kenya, phirili linkawoneka tsiku ndi tsiku ndinali pa Ol Pejeta, lalitali kumbuyo, koma n'zomvetsa chisoni kuti tsopano pafupi ndi chipale chofewa ndi madzi oundana, chizindikiro chotsimikizika kuti kusintha kwa nyengo kwabwera kunyumba ku Eastern Africa kudzakhazikika. m’kupita kwa nthaŵi anachotsa madzi oundana a m’mapiri a Rwenzori ku Uganda, chipale chofeŵa cha Kilimanjaro, ndi madzi oundana a m’phiri la Kenya. Kunali kuzindikira kochititsa mantha kwambiri paulendowu kuwona kukula kwa kusungunuka, ndipo ndizodetsa nkhawa kwambiri kulingalira momwe mapiriwa adzawonekere m'zaka zina 15 kapena 20.

Kumanga mipanda kuli ndi ubwino wake, komanso kuipa kwake, ndipo zonse zikaganiziridwa, ndi kwa mabungwe oteteza zachilengedwe kuti asankhe njira yomwe ingawathandize iwo, nyama ndi anthu, kuti achepetse ndikupewa makamaka mikangano ya anthu / nyama zakutchire, zomwe chifukwa chakuchulukirachulukira kwa anthu m'njira za anthu osamuka komanso kuzungulira mapaki, malo osungiramo nyama, ndi malo osungira nyama, zimakhalapo.

Ndinasangalala ndi ulendo wanga waufupi kwambiri ku Ol Pejeta ndipo ndikuyamikiranso kwambiri antchito awo onse, amene akutumikira mofunitsitsa m’chihema chachisokonezocho otchedwa Amosi ndi Hesbon; Kariuki kuyala bedi ndi kubweretsa mabotolo amadzi otentha usiku; Babu, Saruni, ndi Solonka akuperekeza alendo mosatekeseka kupita ndi kuchokera kumahema awo; otsogolera, ma spotters, ndi trackers kuchokera ku Dominique kupita ku John; ndipo pomalizira pake woyang'anira Paul Magiri mwiniwake, msilikali wochereza alendo yemwe amanyadira kwambiri ntchito yake komanso momwe adasungira malowo mu mawonekedwe a sitima. Onse alowa mu timu imodzi yabwino aliyense woyendetsa msasa anganyadire, ndipo amaika moyo weniweni mumsasawo.

Kukhala ndekha kokongola, kukhala ndi gawo lalikulu la malo osungiramo zinthu kwa ine ndekha, ndimangogawana ndi alendo ena awiri m'masiku anga awiri komweko, zidandikumbutsa zamasiku apitawa, ndikamayendetsa m'chipululu inali nthawi yanga yosangalalira Loweruka ndi Lamlungu komanso nthawi iliyonse. pena panapezeka mwayi wopita kutchire.
