Abstract
As a long standing Conservationists in East Africa, and a member of IUCN Environment Commission, I welcome the re-appearance of the journal PARKS. I must however draw attention to the inappropriate nature of the illustration on the brochure. This shows a Maasai elder standing on the floor of Ngorongoro with the trees and Senetu water on his left and a Maasai encampment in the middle distance on his right. This was the home of the chief religious leader of the area (the Oloibonl in Maasai); the figure depicted is or rather was a resident of another Crater establishment, the remarkable fenceless boma depicted in my Ngorongoro the Eighth Wonder
