Jeneria Lekilelei

Ewaso Lions

On countless occasions, Jeneria Lekilelei has almost paid with his life to save lions; a species he once saw only as a threat to his family’s livelihood. Jeneria is one of countable local experts on lion behaviour who can identify every single lion in his area by sight. But it is in the most challenging of all aspects of his work – human- lion conflict – that Jeneria comes into his own.
