Rikapo graduates!

Thanks to support from the Saint Louis Zoo, Rikapo Lentiyoo our Laisamis Regional Coordinator, was able to attend the Southern African Wildlife College in Hoedspruit, South Africa from January to December 2013.

This one-year course was a Higher Certificate in Nature Conservation and Rikapo earned an Upper Second Class! He was the only student from Kenya and contributed an East African perspective which was appreciated by his course leaders. Rikapo has now returned home, energised, motivated and ready to resume his work with the Grevy’s Zebra Trust. He will share everything he learnt with his colleagues and will contribute new and valuable insights into our conservation approach. Congratulations and welcome home Rikapo!
