Answer:

  1. European imperial powers scramble for territorial possessions in Africa led to slicing up of the continent into different regions.Massai land was divided between British Kenya and German Tanganyika. This restricted the movement of the massais between regions.
  2. The best grazing lands were taken over for white settlement and pastoralists were not allowed entry to these settlements and markets. This restricted not only grazing lands but prohibited them from entering into any form of trade as well. They were moreover pushed into a small area which was arid and poor in pastures.
  3. In late 19th century local peasant communities were encouraged by the British colonisers to expand cultivation at the expense of pasture lands.

(iv) Large areas of Maasai grazing lands were turned into game reserves, e.g., Sambur U National Park in Kenya and Serengeti Park in Tanzania. These reserves were out of bound of the pastoralists.

(v) For lands which were available special permits were required and rules lay down. In case of default Maasai’s were subject to harassment and severely punished.

here is your answer ⬇️⬇️

The Maasais lost their grazing lands due to the following reasons: ... Large areas of grazing land were also turned into game reserves where pastoralists were not allowed to enter. This lack of good grazing lands and a two-year drought led to losses of almost 60% cattle belonging to the Maasai tribes.
