Maasai
As at 2016, thousands of these pastoralist groups in Tanzania have been evicted from their lands close to the Serengeti, Maasai Mara and Ngorongoro national parks.
Media reports state that the government has, over the years, tried to evict them to establish exclusive game-hunting in the area. Over 3,ooo people were rendered homeless after a mass eviction in 2009.
There are now fears of further extinction since after suffering from the consequences of land grabbing by powerful companies, they now have to deal with climate change and drought which is affecting them and their livestock.
