"'Lion Guardians' are pictured here using telemetry to locate lions in the ecosystem outside of Amboselli National Park, Kenya. 'Lion Guardians' is a conservation program which recruits leading #Maasai men, many of whom are former lion killers, into a system which monitors lions, fostering a vanguard that seeks to prevent other Maasai from hunting lions in retribution for cattle killing. - brentstirton | February 25, 2013 | #GettyReportage
