  3. ..But now the government is more determined than ever. #Maasai elders are calling for our support because they simply don't have the money for expensive legal battles, and time is running out.

  7. #Avaaz: The #Tanzanian government has been on the attack for years -- burning homes and trying to evict entire Maasai communities to clear the way for elephant hunting and luxury tourism.

    Now two presidential commissions are openly pushing for mass evictions, and thousands of families could lose access to water, medical care, and grazing rights in weeks.

    The Maasai don't just live in #Ngorongoro -- their entire way of life is deeply woven into the grasslands, rivers, and open plains. They've successfully protected these lands for generations, so it's no wonder that wildlife is abundant or that elephants give birth here. And that's exactly why the government wants these lands for trophy hunting.

    We cannot let it happen.

    Avaaz members provided ALL the funding for a critical court case that previously blocked mass evictions. But now the government is more determined than ever. #Maasai elders are calling for our support because they simply don't have the money for expensive legal battles, and time is running out.

    "The government of #Tanzania evict #Maasai communities from supposed #conservation areas. It's ethnic cleansing for #safari business.

    '"I unpacked the ways in which the Tanzanian authorities, in collaboration with global conservation and tourism actors, have implemented policies forcing Maasai communities to abandon their ancestral lands. This was done through conservation management plans that undermine the interests of local communities and traditional livelihoods. The ability of the Maasai to meet their needs was also limited, for instance through restricting their access to social services.

    "'As a result, nearly all the 100,000 Maasai living within the Ngorongoro conservation area face extreme poverty.'"
