Rhino Ark - Humans in Harmony with Habitat and Wildlife

Rhino Ark's Mission

fence Rhino Ark's mission is to raise such funds and material support as are required for the building of an electrified fence to encircle both the Aberdares National Park and the demarcated forestry areas which make up the Aberdares Conservation Area.

To mobilise all the relevant national and international stakeholders towards a joint initiative to protect and conserve the Aberdares habitat.

To prevent any illegal exploitation of the forest habitat.

To promote the sustainable use of forest products for the benefit of both present and future generations.

By so doing Rhino Ark seeks to:

Mobilize stakeholders nationwide and internationally for initiatives to protect and conserve the habitat and promote managed use of forest products for the benefit of present and future generations
Raise funds and other forms of support for the long-term management of an electrified fence and the entire ecosystem of the Aberdares.
Build mechanisms and management structures to prevent illegal exploitation of the forest habitat wherever it is threatened. In so doing, all stakeholders will benefit and the rhino, bongo, indeed all flora and fauna will be secure.

In this way, all stake-holders will benefit: the rhino, bongo, indeed all flora and fauna will be secure.
