Answer 2

Try wikipedia for better results, but here it is in short.
Kenya is in central Africa. It is near the euqator and has good pleasant weather for most of the year.
People go there on eco holidays. To see the wild game (animals) and the Maisai (people)
Tourist are good because they bring money into the Kenyan economy, bad because they pollute, and bother the wild animals.
Kenya could solve these problems by been strickter on areas where tourist can and cannot visit, and leaving special reserves just for animals.
Over all, tourism is good for Kenya, cause it's their biggest source of income.
I think that was a sufficient answer, and is worth being voted best.
