Great news from KopeLion… “Rumas Olelekipa, the Ilchokuti (aka lion guardian) sponsored by Nomad Tanzania, was promoted to be the Coordinator of his area. This entails supporting 3 Ilchokuti in the north western side of the crater, an area that is now extremely volatile for lion and livestock conflict since 5 year old collared male from Ndutu, Laipangwa settled in the area with 5 females from the Lakes pride in the Crater and their 9 cubs. Rumas is dedicated to the role he plays within his community and is a well-respected and popular figure and we are delighted that he has accepted more responsibility.”
The Nomad team is extremely proud of our local lion guardian.
