In December 2014 with a vision to keeping this wilderness intact for future generations The Nature Conservancy facilitated the purchase of the 56,000 acre Loisaba Conservancy and the subsequent transition to the Loisaba Community Trust. The Nature Conservancy’s move to ‘protect and preserve’ the land ensures that we can continue to support the wildlife, the communities and all Kenyans for the foreseeable future.


Loisaba represents the single largest conservation investment in East Africa in 2014/15 and was born from a partnership between The Nature Conservancy, Space for Giants and The Northern Rangelands Trust.  With Tourism and cattle as the main sources of revenue, the aim is to be self sustainable supporting this vital piece of land.


As Tom Sivester, CEO of the Loisaba Conservancy explained: ‘The expression we always had was “forever” – we want Loisaba to be wild and for elephants to be able to walk across it forever, and I think we achieved that aim. It’s now locked up for conservation forever.’

This integrated model Among Us represents a shift away from older conservation systems that often excluded local populations.

I’ve been killing time during breaks lately and found eggy car unblocked surprisingly addictive. The physics feel simple but getting the egg across uneven hills is way harder than it looks.

I really admire the long-term vision behind protecting Loisaba—initiatives like this show how powerful collaboration can be when it comes to conservation. I feel like, much like in Ragdoll Hit where every action has a ripple effect, preserving such a vast ecosystem ensures lasting benefits for wildlife and communities alike, and I truly appreciate how this effort is designed to last “forever.”
