Volunteers managed to monitor 3 prides of lions, as well as cheetahs and leopard. There were a total of 76 lion sightings, 21 cheetah sightings and 6 leopard sightings through the quarter (which is amazing as they are such elusive creatures!).

Lion prides monitored were Sampu Enkare pride, Enesikiria pride and Ilkisiusiu pride. Dongo, Caesar 2, Ron 2 and Blue eyes control the 4 prides in the conservancy.

Volunteers continued supporting the Mara Predator Conservation Program with their second intensive monitoring activity. This will enable them to estimate spatial trends in population density of cats and find the relative abundance of important variables like prey, livestock and tourism in the conservancy.
