The Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) owes victims of human-wildlife conflict Sh2.6 billion in unpaid compensation claims.

Out of these arrears, only Sh606 million has been budgeted for by KWS in the next financial year meaning many victims of human-wildlife conflict will have to wait longer for the State compensation.
