Sianga kuyan interview with Waleed Aly about maasai land.
I was born and raised in small remote Maasai village in Tanzania near the protected area of the Serengeti ecosystem. Some of my fondest memories as a child are of walking our cattle for grazing in the Serengeti ecosystem (“Siringet” is a Maasai word meaning endless plains) along with the great annual migration of over a million wildebeest and their predators, including lions. On these trips, I was able to be free in the surrounding nature and peacefully interact with the wild animals – lions, zebras, elephants, giraffes, many species of antelopes and rich birdlife
