Mending Fences- Comic book series

Local communities and wildlife have a right to live in the beautiful landscape that is Laikipia, and the welfare of both must and can be protected through fences. To many, fences are synonymous with segregation and separation. But we believe that fences can be used for good. Here in Laikipia fences don't offend. Instead of conflict, they provide coexistence. Rather than strife, man and animal are shielded from one another-farmers get to protect their crops, and wildlife is protected from human interference. Mending fences is based on real stories and settings, surrounding HEC fences in Laikipia and how they play a fundamental role in mitigating human-wildlife conflict. Mending fences is also about how, in Laikipia, good fences bring good neighbors together, and elephants and other wildlife benefit.
