(Xinhua/Liu Qiong)As dawn breaks over Ol Kinyei Conservancy in Kenya's Maasai Mara ecosystem, rangers are already combing the grasslands for signs of unauthorized entry and poaching while keeping a close watch on wildlife.
Among them is Chinese conservationist Zhuo Qiang, nicknamed "Simba," the Swahili word for lion. For him, this early-morning routine is driven by a broader mission to achieve human-wildlife coexistence.
In 2010, Zhuo left his job in China at the age of 37 and embarked on a less-traveled path: pursuing wildlife conservation in Kenya.
Without professional training in wildlife conservation, he found himself in a territory then dominated by Western organizations and local practitioners.
But Zhuo decided to stay. "I wanted to prove that Chinese people could also do wildlife conservation," he said.
Initially, Zhuo saw conservation largely through the lens of wildlife science: working in the field, studying animals and collecting data.
Living and working with Maasai communities changed that perspective. "The fate of wildlife was closely tied to the people sharing the same land," he said.
In the Maasai Mara ecosystem, livestock grazing is deeply connected to the livelihoods of pastoral communities. "If local people are asked to stop grazing but are given no alternative source of income, conservation cannot be sustainable," Zhuo said.
That principle laid the foundation for his work with the local community in establishing the Ol Kinyei Conservancy.
The area had suffered from prolonged overgrazing, with plants and the land itself deteriorating. Under the conservation model, local grazing land was leased and gradually restored, allowing vegetation to recover and creating a more suitable habitat for wildlife, said Zhuo.
Meanwhile, households participating in the scheme receive land-rental income and have access to jobs such as wildlife rangers and tourism workers. Their average annual income has increased from around 500 U.S. dollars to about 3,700 dollars, according to Zhuo.
Some residents from surrounding communities also learned from the experience and brought the approach back to their own grazing areas.
Nowadays, 26 private conservancies have been established around the Maasai Mara National Reserve, covering about 1,600 square km, according to Zhuo.
He believes the network of community conservancies provides additional safe space for wildlife to move and survive, extending conservation efforts beyond the boundaries of a single national reserve and into surrounding communities.
Simon Msago, a Maasai community leader in Ngoswani, said Zhuo's work encouraged more residents to take an active role in conservation.
In the past, many residents saw few direct benefits from wildlife conservation and had limited awareness of its importance. Today, community members are increasingly willing to work as rangers and protect wildlife, creating an effective layer of protection around the conservancies, Msago said.
"Human-wildlife conflict cannot be solved simply through restrictions and prohibitions. The key is to create alternative sources of income so that residents can gain tangible benefits from conservation," Zhuo said.
"That is what makes community-based conservation sustainable -- allowing local people to become part of wildlife conservation rather than bystanders with no stake in it."
While continuing his work in the Maasai Mara, Zhuo has also sought to strengthen exchanges between China and Africa in wildlife conservation.
In recent years, he has visited more than 30 nature reserves and national parks in China, sharing his experiences of community-based conservation in Africa with Chinese counterparts.
"Conservation practices in China and Africa each have their own characteristics, and there is much that the two sides can learn from each other," he added.

。这二番战渡边雄太、八村垒两位锋线核心还没有出战,日本队在河村勇辉的带领下就将全主力出战的韩国队按在地板上摩擦,这支日本队的硬实力看起来已经是亚洲最顶尖的存在。
这场比赛身高1.72米的河村勇辉仅仅出战24分59秒,14中7,三分6中3,拿到24分6篮板3助攻1抢断,命中率50%,三分命中率50%,虽然他提前打卡下班。
河村勇辉打卡下班后他脱掉球衣休息,从近照来看河村勇辉的肌肉线条相当出色,肱二头肌上的青筋暴露,就算隔着运动背心也能看出腹肌与胸肌的轮廓,这也是河村勇辉能在NBA立足的关键。
前日本男篮国手辻直人在直播这场比赛中评价了1.72米的河村勇辉,他说道:河村的身体素质太出色了,居然在篮下把吕俊锡撞飞了,在对抗后身体失去平衡的情况下也没有丢球!
休赛期河村增肌2公斤,目的就是为了适应NBA的强度,在热身赛中他多次显露身体硬度,身高2.01米的吕俊锡与他对撞却被他撞飞出去,不少日本球迷盛赞河村勇辉身体太强了,一个人支配比赛。
河村勇辉这两场热身赛,第一场17分钟9中5,三分7中3,拿到12分6助攻3篮板1抢断;第二场25分钟,14中7,三分6中3,拿到24分6篮板3助攻1抢断;不得不说河村勇辉在FIBA赛场已经是统治级的存在,而中国男篮没有这样的后卫精英。
河村勇辉在NBA G联赛打了两个赛季,上赛季他场均33.5分钟,拿到18.7分11助攻5篮板0.8抢断,命中率35.7%,三分命中率34.9%。

二 | 他比25-26赛季场均12.4分7.8助攻上浮不少。
