"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, indeed that was a very general question but I have been focusing on the specific question that I was being asked by Mr. Ochieng. There are various interventions which the Government has put in place in the absence of compensation for the loss of property and that includes awareness, encouraging rural communities to participate in the creation of community-based wildlife sanctuaries, capture and translocation of endangered species. For the hippos, their translocation is a very complex matter. The KWS had an experience with the rhinos and elephants but we want to engage or carry out an exercise to try and see if we can be able to translocate the hippos so that we can be able to reduce this conflict. However, we acknowledge this is a complex matter and as we know, 70 per cent of wildlife live outside the protected area and human settlement has actually encroached onto the wildlife corridors and, therefore, the conflict is bound to happen. However, I will encourage hon. Members that if these cases occur and since we have offices in almost every part of the country, let us have this information shared with these offices. If we do not act, please advice us and we will help you make them do their job."
