By PAUL RFEDFERNMore by this AuthorLONDONTour operators in London say the shooting of renowned conservationist and author Kuki Gallmann has worsened an already bad situation in Laikipia County. “Obviously, we have this problem with people who are outside these ranches,” said Mr Dangar. “Laikipia has seen numerous invasions by cattle herders onto privately held ranches and conservancies, in some cases leading to violence and arson,” read the advisory. Meanwhile, the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) has condemned the shooting of Mrs Gallmann. The agency’s director-general, Mr Kitili Mbathi, said in a press statement on Monday the unprovoked attack poses a security threat to residents and wildlife in Laikipia.
