We are excited to have recently translocated 35 impala from Old Pejeta Ranch in Laikipia into the Ruko Conservancy on Longicharo Island opposite Samatian.

They are thriving in their new home and they have already attracted another herd of impala that stays close to them on the other side of the seclusion fence. Two of the impala’s have given birth and many more are pregnant. In November we are reintroducing five Baringo giraffe (Rothschild’s) to the island to take part in a breeding program.

We recently had Baringos main sporting event of the year - the ‘Ruko Rukathalon’ - to raise awareness and promote peace through sports for the local communities.
