Wildlife & People in East Africa:
Is There a Place for Both?
Compelling Lecture in Cincinnati Explores Controversial Topic
Nairobi, Kenya – The greatest wildlife herds on earth have thrived alongside pastoral peoples like the Maasai for well over 3,000 years in Africa.

Acclaimed international conservationist Dr. David Western explores these questions in a far-reaching and compelling lecture Thursday, May 4 in Cincinnati as part of the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden’s Barrows Conservation Lecture Series.
