There is an animal called Sitatunga that is found around Kimondi River in Chesumei sub-county. Some young men picked a horn that belongs to that rare species. The Government acted so fast; they were arrested, taken to court, charged and fined. However, when an ordinary mwananchi is attacked by a snake or any other wildlife, compensation in terms of medical bills and provision for burial arrangements does not happen. Therefore, this does not only happen in Taita- Taveta. The reason this is happening is because we are more concerned with the benefits of wildlife at the expense of the ordinary mwananchi of this country."}
