"content": "Despite the fact that my constituency does not have human-wildlife conflict per se, I would like to talk about the plight of Kenyans and especially farmers from Mt. Kenya region. Farmers are actually pushed into being creative to ensure that wildlife does not destroy their crops. Farmers in these regions have found it not profitable to be near game parks. Most of them have started looking at wildlife as food and that is why when rangers gun down elephants or buffalos, our farmers scramble for the meat. They no longer value these animals. There is desperation because of the little compensation that is given to farmers and people injured by wildlife. We are costing human life at a mere Kshs.200,000."
