Old Exotic Trees At The Shimba Reserve To Be Finally Harvested
Thousands of exotic trees at the Shimba Hills National Reserve will finally be harvested after a long-standing disagreement between the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) and the Kenya Forest Service (KFS).
The KFS wanted the plantation harvested as most of the trees are dying of old age but KWS raised concern over how the plan will be implemented without affecting wildlife. KFS and KWS agreed to form a four-man team to implement the plan
The team, together with the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA), will conduct an Environmental Impact Assessment and come up with a report to be presented to the forestry minister and the boards of the two parastatals.
The main issues raised by KFS were that the plantation is old and needs to be harvested to reduce the loss and at least earn some income for the service. Shimba Hills National Reserve has been declared a conservation area which means no more exotic plantation will be established in it. The area will instead be left to regenerate naturally.
The exotic forest covers about eight percent of the reserve and has Cyprus, Pine and Eucalyptus that was planted way before the area was gazetted as a reserve. It is feared that about 450 elephants, 150 sable antelopes and more than 400 bird species, may be negatively affected by the move, if implemented.
The reserve is also a water tower area, with five main rivers flowing through the forest, including Mukurumudji, Pemba, Manolo, Ramisi and Marere, which serve a third of the Coastal population with fresh water.
There is word that an investor has already been consulted to fell the old exotic trees to create room for the natural ones because the old trees have exceeded their germination period inside the reserve. KWS was against the move saying felling down the exotic trees would cause irreparable damage to some unique species resident within the park.
KFS on the other hand maintains that the felling of the trees should be a routine practice that will generate millions of shillings in revenue for the country, and that it is an on-going practice in other reserves and parks.

RAINFOREST: If you only had one day to spend in San Jose, Costa Rica?
If you only had one day to spend in San Jose, Costa Rica and wanted to go see the Rainforest, where would you go? I found all the National Parks list for Costa Rica, but really don't know which one to go to. I hear of all the exotic and rare wild life I want to see - the sloths, red macaws, monkeys, etc. in the Rainforest and wish to see these sorts of things even if it is farther. So, what is also the CLOSEST things to do (outside of San Jose City tours) but not just seeing a coffee plantation or butterfly farm? I know about the Arenal Volcano, but what is the best rainforest? (And what is the best rainforest/park to see all the wildlife) And what is the closest rainforest if not the best? I travelled and stayed in the Daintree Rainforest in Australia and LOVE it. I live on a beach in Florida so have no desire to go to a beach since I live on one already, hence why I want to see and take pictures with my nice Canon EOS camera of animals/fauna, etc. in the dense rainforests.
if you like your camera BE CAREFUL!! i went to Costa Rica and the humidity and sudden rain in the rain forest ruined my camera, a very nice one and i was quite upset. i would recommend getting a waterproof case. San Jose just isn't that close to most of the non-traveled rainforest's. the best one for wildlife (for me) was the cloud forest (Monte Verde) it was amazing!! there were sloths just hanging by the doors and windows and hummingbirds everywhere! also iguanas and toucans and wild butterflies. more than i can mention. amazing huge old trees with cactus growing on the higher branches, the base covered in moss and other small plants. i would also recommend la fortuna waterfall as an extremely beautiful photo spot, it's an amazing country with beauty around every corner; I'm sure you wont have any trouble getting great pic.s . also i would go to a restaurant in San Jose called pollo fiesta or something that means chicken party, it's soooo amazing! you absolutely need to try the guacamole! have fun!!
