Baboons in Kenya's parliament

nmoinde · (#1 (**permalink**))

Hello All,

I recently heard from my PhD adviser that Kenya's parliament was discussing human wildlife conflicts and more specifically baboons' role in them. As this has a lot to do with my thesis I was wondering if any of you in the know had any links or papers which you could alert me too. I'm new to this forum and I currently live in NJ so I have found it difficult to locate this information from the other side of the planet.

Thanks a lot for all your help,

Nthenya

Welcome to Mashada. However, I’m skeptical that you will get anything, not even a link, that is worthy of a thesis – but I might be wrong.

Hello Ni_Diambo,

I already have a well developed thesis which investigates human wildlife conflicts between Baboons and humans in both Laikipia and Nakuru, so I'm not looking for a thesis as much as for a footnote regarding the current political wranglings on this issue.

I have not found anything from this end but numerous people have told me that it was on the local news there... I was surprised that I couldn't even find an article of it on the standard or nation websites. So if anyone has a bone, please throw it my way.

Thanks a lot,

Nancy

It is your research and you need to get down and dirty. Wrong place!

In this muck that is Mashada, there are some pretty decent brains that can be identified from their postings. I hope one with the info you need will avail it.

Are you seriously looking for any info? You seem ironical in the title of the thread? Lakini enyewe, endelea kutafuta hao nyani wenye wako kwa bunge yetu!

Sasa @ours, why would you decide to call me "gati"? Kana nikunjika unjikete?
