We have news! In June 2010, the Kenya Wildlife Service is taking members of
our community on a familiarization tour to view a successfully operating conservancy where we will have the chance to ask what effect the conservancy is having on their community, and also how to set up our own project. Thank you so much for helping our community and the Wildlife of Kenya, part of the world's wildlife heritage.

Sopa! Welcome to the Esupetai Maasai Community Website
We are a Maasai community located in the Mara ecosystem, a place richly endowed with Kenya's indigenous wildlife. Our community is establishing a white rhino sanctuary - a place where white rhinos can be preserved, protected and allowed to breed.
Osotua Rhinso Sanctuary is our community's effort to enable us to survive and to send our children to school to take part in the new technology and add their quick minds to Kenya's and the world's future. We are now becoming aware of the need to face the challenges of changing weather patterns and to look for ways to mitigate the effects we notice of global warming.
In looking to the future we are making plans for a large conservancy surrounding the rhino sanctuary which will preserve our wildlife habitat and create a positive environment for people, land and animals. We invite you to come visit us and take in the beauty of our blue hills, our bright sun and cool breezes - to walk our land with us and see the abundant birds and animals that call our place home. Thank you for visiting our website. Regards, Stephen Ole Kisotu, Ann and Sonkoi Ole Keture.
