I am Turere. I come from Kitengela, a farming community on the edge(边缘) of Nairobi National Park of Kenya(肯尼亚). Since the age of nine, I have helped to look after my family's cows.

So he jumps in and kills the animals.
So one night, I was walking around the cowshed with a torch(手电筒), and that day, the lions didn't come. And I discovered that lions were afraid of a moving light. So I had an idea...
