Under the cover of darkness, fishermen sneak into Lake Nakuru driven by poverty and the high cost of living. 

They cast their nets despite the ever-present danger of ferocious hippos, deadly crocodiles and armed Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) rangers determined to keep them out of the protected waters.

Many have drowned while fleeing KWS officers while others have been mauled by wild animals and some have allegedly lost their lives at the hands of law enforcement.
