KFS unleashes dogs on illegal loggers The Kenya Forest Service (KFS) will soon use trained dogs to increase its capacity of forest protection and conservation. The process of integrating canine security into pre-existing human and technological security systems will help KFS to provide greater security capabilities. New protection measures were informed by the need for KFS to remain responsive to the ever-changing dynamics of security risks and threats facing the vast forest ecosystems in the country. Two forest rangers; George Adero and Joel Omondi who have undergone four months training on dog handling, recently conducted a demonstration to the Chief Conservator of Forests (CFC), Mr. Julius Kamau at Karura forest station.
