the background at Kimana Sanctuary in Kimana, Kenya, on March 2, 2021. - A turf war has erupted over a 180-acre avocado farm near one of Kenyas premier national parks, where elephants and other wildlife graze against the striking backdrop of Africas highest peak.
Opponents of the farm say it obstructs the free movement of iconic tuskers -- putting their very existence at risk -- and clashes with traditional ways of using the land.
The farms backers refute this, saying their development poses no threat to wildlife and generates much-needed jobs on idle land.
The rift underscores a broader struggle for dwindling resources that echoes beyond Kenya, as wilderness is constricted by expanding farmland to feed a growing population. (Photo by Yasuyoshi CHIBA / AFP)

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo captured by Yasuyoshi Chiba, we are presented with a breathtaking scene that encapsulates the delicate balance between nature and human development. The image showcases a general view of elephants peacefully grazing in Kimana Sanctuary, Kenya, against the backdrop of the majestic snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro. However, hidden behind this serene landscape lies a fierce turf war over a 180-acre avocado farm. Opponents argue that the farm disrupts the free movement of iconic tuskers, endangering their very existence and clashing with traditional land usage practices. On the other hand, supporters claim that their development poses no threat to wildlife and instead provides much-needed employment opportunities on previously idle land. This dispute highlights a larger struggle for dwindling resources not only in Kenya but also worldwide as expanding farmland encroaches upon wilderness areas to sustain an ever-growing population. It serves as a stark reminder of how our choices can impact both wildlife conservation efforts and economic development. Yasuyoshi Chiba's photograph captures this complex narrative through its stunning composition, showcasing Africa's natural beauty while drawing attention to the challenges faced by conservationists and farmers alike. As viewers gaze at this illustration-like mountain landscape dotted with elephants roaming freely across savannah plains, they are reminded of the intricate web connecting agriculture, animal preservation, tourism, and food security.
