    After some years of following Nosikitok and her pride in Ndutu, her collar dropped off as per schedule in December, and we needed to find a new lion to follow.

    No Lions Lost?

    Up to now the hard work of the KopeLion team has paid off and resulted in having no lions lost this year to retaliatory or traditional hunts...but the toughest work, this December, is still to come.

This is one of the lions we now see in Kakesio, having established the second corridor of tolerance.This handsome male was picked up by his tracks, by our Ilchokuti and the community, and then a night call up. He's wily, but we're still hopeful that we manage to put a GPS collar on him and see where life takes him and his genes!Photo: Emmanuel Lufilisha. #corridoroftolerance #humanlioncoexistence #communityconservation #ngorongoroconservationarea #ngorongoro The Donald Slavik Family Foundation @iucnsos @eu_partnerships @lionrecoveryfund ...
