Yes, Hari, some are ultra popular, but the key is wanting to <i> "visit them without leaving too big a footprint" </i>. The bigger the footprint (bigger, more luxurious camps, lodges), the more managed an area will have to be to protect it. Bingo, it joins the ranks of the vanished wild areas.

Some of the largest camps and lodges are within the Mara National Park (Keekorok, Sarova, Sarena and the rest). So from your argument this is a managed environment!
Frankly I think not, the tribal authority barely spends a dime on the roads and that is about the extent of the Mara's management plan.
I don't see the wild lands vanishing there anytime soon. Or do I have rose coloured glasses and am not seeing the rapid disappearance of the mara biome?
