In the sprawling African savannas, the Acacia xanthophloea takes the spotlight, weaving a tale of resilience against herbivores. The defense mechanisms of plants, such as spines, thorns, and prickles emerge as nature's tools for survival, deflecting the appetites of voracious mammals. While past studies touched on the significance of spines, our exploration probes into the quantitative intricacies, unraveling how these elements influence Acacia xanthophloea's response to browsing pressure. The research was conducted in an African savanna, known for its dense herbivore populations, particularly large mammals.

- Conservation of Kikuyu Escarpment Forest
With the support of Women in Conservation Technology (Kenya) and Arm, I had a chance to work with Kijabe Environment Volunteers in Kikuyu Escarpment Forest. This was an opportunity to channel my passion for the environment into tangible actions that promote sustainability and protect natural ecosystems.
