This is really one of the world wonders, and I really hope the poachers get their own medicine. The blog is amazing, they even have a way of sponsoring a ranger, that is trully something, and I hope many people will donate to this cause. Wonderful sites and pictures.. I can't help my heart tightening at the sight of those poor animals being killed...

Frieda..your comments are niether relevant nor helpful..infact they are rather tasteless when you consider the severe problem of poaching and the economic strains that encourage the practice

Africa has been my dream since I was 11 years old. My parents are offering to send me on a "EuroTrip" with my college brother but I would rather do an Africa Trip. Plane into Cairo, book a flight from Cape Town 2 months later...figure out the rest. I want to go to Kenya and Uganda really badly...I hope they let me go to Africa instead of Europe.

I've always wanted to see Africa. It must be beautiful and thunderous in the pastures of Wildebeest – I hope it never becomes an echo.

So many species in a lot of places are severely threatened by poachers; we may lose whole species if we cannot stem the numbers of animals killed by poachers and that would be a shame for us and our children as well as our planet. We have the means to put the poachers out of business – by not buying the end products they supply. It like everything else is a demand driven market.

WOW! Amazing pictures. Great video. The Masai Mara is one of the world's most magical places. The violence and greed that is growing in that area is very disheartening though. I'm not sure when things will calm down again. Too many poachers could endanger their incredible trek, what a bummer. Hopefully soon it will taper down a bit. One day, I hope to visit and witness it for myself.

It is sad that these beautiful animals are being trapped or shot and killed by poachers for food. I hope that the ranger's blog can stir up enough interest to get more money coming in so that they can keep the poachers out. And hopefully people will see that all is calm again and will start going back to see the magnificent sites there. It would be a shame to lose these animals forever!
