KA HOʻOʻO LITMUS NO KA SANITY – NA PALAPALA HOʻOPIʻI O KENYA NO KE ALA KAʻAʻahi ma o ka paka.
E hoʻāʻo ʻia ka hoʻokō ʻana i ka mālama ʻana i ke aupuni Kenyan, no kēia a no nā hanauna e hiki mai ana, i ka wā e hoʻoholo ʻia ai ka hoʻoholo hope ma ke ala ʻana o ka SGR, pōkole no Standard Gauge Railway ma o Nairobi National Park.
I ka wā mua i manaʻo ʻia e holo ma ka palena o ka paka, kokoke e like me ka laina kaʻaahi e kū nei a me ka ʻāpana i ʻae ʻia no mākou e ka Southern Bypass, ua pena ʻia nā palapala ʻāina hou loa i ke kiʻi ʻokoʻa.
ʻO Nairobi National Park wale nō ka paka ma ka honua - ʻokoʻa ka Lusaka National Park wale nō i hoʻokuʻu ʻia - ka mea e pili ana i ke kūlanakauhale nui a hiki i nā ʻike holoholona hihiu kupaianaha i loko o hoʻokahi hola mai kahi hōkele o ke kaona e hui pū me nā liona. rhino, giraffe, bufalo a me nā mea pāʻani ʻē aʻe. ʻO ka liʻiliʻi, aia ma lalo o 120 mau kilomika square, akā naʻe, hoʻokō ʻo ia i kahi hana koʻikoʻi no ke kūlanakauhale e hoʻopuka ana i nā ʻea a me nā kinoea ʻōmaʻomaʻo a pono ia i kahi māmā ʻōmaʻomaʻo no kona ola ponoʻī. ʻO kekahi o nā paka i kipa nui ʻia ma Kenya, a me ka Safari Walk ma kahi kokoke i ke keʻena nui o ka paka ma Langata, ʻo ia hoʻi he mea wili kālā no ka Kenya Wildlife Service a me nā mea nui o ka mākaʻikaʻi kūlanakauhale a me ka mākaʻikaʻi MICE no Nairobi, e hāʻawi ana i kahi mea hoihoi e makemake e nalo i ka kipa ʻana. .
ʻO ka paka, e like me ia, no nā makahiki i kēia manawa i lalo o ke koʻikoʻi nui, ʻoiai nā hoʻoikaika ikaika o nā hui mālama kūloko, kūloko a me ka honua a ʻoiai ʻo FONNaP, kahi NGO kūloko i hoʻolaʻa ʻia i ka paka i kapa ʻia ʻo Friends of Nairobi National Park.
Ua kūkulu ʻia nā ala neʻe i loko a i waho o ka paka, ua paʻa ʻia a hoʻokaʻawale ʻia no ka hoʻomohala ʻana i nā ʻoihana a me nā hale e kokoke mai ana, e hoʻohuli ana i kahi ala maʻamau no nā holoholona hihiu mai Amboseli a i ʻole Chyulu Hills i slalom a me nā helu hāʻule. Ua ʻae nui ʻia he hopena koʻikoʻi kēia i ka wā e hiki mai ana i ka heluna kanaka i loko o ka paka i ʻoki ʻia mai ke komo ʻana o nā genes hou, he pilikia nui paha ma ka Nairobi National Park akā ʻike nui ʻia ma nā wahi ʻē aʻe o Kenya, ma nā wahi āpau a me ka lawe ʻana o ka neʻe. Ua ʻike ʻia nā ala no nā hana kanaka e like me ka mahiʻai a hale paha.
ʻO ke ala kaʻaahi hou, ʻo ia kekahi o nā papahana kaʻa kaʻa hou mua loa o ka ʻāina no nā makahiki he 115 i hala iho nei, ʻaʻohe mea kānalua e hoʻoikaika i ka manawa hoʻokele waiwai no nā ʻāina ala ʻākau o Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, South Sudan a me East Congo i mua a he kakaikahi ka mea e hoʻopaʻapaʻa. aole pono. ʻO ka lawe ʻana mai a me ka lawe ʻana aku a me nā kaʻa kaʻa kaʻa lōʻihi e pōmaikaʻi nui mai nā kumukūʻai haʻahaʻa a me nā kumukūʻai haʻahaʻa a me nā uku a me ka wikiwiki o ka lawe ʻana i nā manawa huakaʻi i nā hola i manaʻo mua ʻia i nā lā.
I ka wā i lilo ai ʻo Nairobi i hale waihona no nā mea kaʻaahi ma mua o ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kenekulia i ka hopena o ka makahiki 1900 ʻaʻole hiki i kekahi ke noʻonoʻo he 115 mau makahiki ma hope mai ua puka mai kekahi kūlanakauhale honua a puni kēia hui liʻiliʻi o nā hale a me nā hale lole. I kēia lā, hiki ke hoʻokō ʻia kekahi mea like me ka hoʻokele ʻana i ke kaʻaahi hou mai ke kapikala a me ka hoʻokumu ʻana i kahi hub hou, kahi e ulu ai nā hale noho a me nā ʻoihana ʻoihana i nā makahiki e hiki mai ana, a mai kahi e hiki ai ke kiʻi ʻia ke kūlanakauhale ponoʻī e kahi pauku loulou pōkole. , ina e manaoia he pono keia. Hiki i ia ala ala ke kaalo loa i ka paka ma ke ala hema a hiki i ke awāwa ʻo Rift akā me he mea lā ʻo ke kumukūʻai ke kumu hoʻokele e haʻalele ai i kēlā ʻano hopena no ka mea e koi ʻia nā tunnel a me nā alahaka a ʻo 'Dumb and Dumber' e kuhikuhi i ka ʻāina o ka paka aupuni, nona ke aupuni a no laila ua manaʻo ʻia he 'noa' me ka nānā ʻole ʻana i ke kumukūʻai kaiapuni nui.
Ma ʻaneʻi wau e nīnau ai i ke kūlana noʻonoʻo a me ka noʻonoʻo o ka poʻe aʻoaʻo nāna i hoʻopuka i kēia manaʻo hoʻokele ala hou loa, nā poʻe i kānalua ʻole e hāʻawi i ka mana i ka paka a hoʻolilo iā ia i mau ʻāina ʻīpuka hale kiʻekiʻe, nā papa kolepa a me - ma ka liʻiliʻi loa i nā ʻāpana - i loko o nā paka ʻoihana.
ʻOi aku kēia i kēia lā ma mua o ka wā ma mua e pono ai ʻaʻole wale ka ʻohana mālama mālama akā ʻo ka poʻe o Nairobi nui ke kū nei a kūʻē i kēlā mau hoʻolālā hoʻopunipuni, no ka mea hoʻokahi mea maopopo, inā ʻaʻole e pani ʻia kēia ma kona ala i kēia manawa, ʻē aʻe. ʻO nā paka e like me Nakuru ka mea aʻe ma ka papa inoa o nā mea aʻoaʻo a me nā mea hoʻomohala.
E hahai i ke kūkākūkā ma o nā ʻaoʻao pūnaewele ʻo conservation NGO, nā ʻaoʻao Facebook a me Twitter, e kau inoa i nā palapala noi kūpono a i kāu mea ponoʻī ponoʻī i nā wahi a me nā manawa a pau a i ʻole e kiʻi i nā kiʻi like ʻole, i paʻi ʻia e kēia mea kākau i kekahi o nā mākaʻikaʻi pāka i ka makahiki i hala. he mea kahiko a loaʻa ma nā puke wale nō akā ʻaʻole ʻike ʻia maoli.
He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- Such a routing could bypass the park altogether along a southern route into the Rift Valley but it seems that cost is the driving factor to ignore such a solution as more tunnels and bridges would be required while ‘Dumb and Dumber' will point to the land of the national park, owned by the government and therefore thought to be ‘free' without taking the massive environmental cost into account.
- Ma ʻaneʻi wau e nīnau ai i ke kūlana noʻonoʻo a me ka noʻonoʻo o ka poʻe aʻoaʻo nāna i hoʻopuka i kēia manaʻo hoʻokele ala hou loa, nā poʻe i kānalua ʻole e hāʻawi i ka mana i ka paka a hoʻolilo iā ia i mau ʻāina ʻīpuka hale kiʻekiʻe, nā papa kolepa a me - ma ka liʻiliʻi loa i nā ʻāpana - i loko o nā paka ʻoihana.
- Nairobi National Park is the only park in the world – apart from the only recently launched Lusaka National Park – which borders a capital city and allows for amazing wildlife experiences within the space of an hour from a downtown hotel to come face to face with lions, rhinos, giraffes, buffalos and other game.
