Donor support last year also allowed us to outfit the Tsavo East National Park, Northern Area with some badly needed tools. The purchase included seemingly basic items like socket sets, jacks, and wrenches (see photo).


Yes, they're armed now. With Tools!

This may sound relatively inconsequential, but the tools facilitated the repair of road graders and other vehicles that had been inoperable for some time. In fact, getting these vehicles up and running helped open roads that had not been open in fifty years. As KWS Senior warden Danny Woodley pointed out, the workshop is a crucial component of keeping the park running, especially when many of the vehicles in use have logged over 500,000 KM.
