Maasai pastoralism is under existential pressure. Climate change brings longer droughts and less predictable rains. Land sales fragment grazing corridors. Development projects fence off dry-season pastures. The traditional system of moving cattle to follow grass and water is breaking down. Families are diversifying, sending children to school, investing in small businesses, looking for alternatives. But alternatives do not replace what is being lost. Pastoralism is not just livelihood. It is identity, and when it becomes impossible, the question becomes: what now?
