Snake handlers scale Tsavo ecosystem in search of venomous reptiles
Following its establishment by the late James and Sanda Ashe and Royjan Taylor, the Watamu Snake Farm has fledged into a centre of excellence, with great progress continuing to be made.

Situated on the northern foothills of Mount Kenya, the Lewa-Borana Landscape (LBL) is a 376km 2 joint wildlife reserve at the heart of the Laikipia-Samburu ecosystem. This vast stretch of land connects seamlessly with neighbouring pastoral rangelands, creating one of Kenya’s most important conservation areas. To the south, it borders the government-owned Mount Kenya and Ngare Ndare Forest Reserves, while to the west and north, it opens into the Il Ngwesi, Lekurruki and Lapir
