The Maasai culture is one of the last tribal traditions in East Africa to be proudly maintained. Historically, men would display their success by having several wives, many children and a large herd of cows and goats. Prior to settling down it is not uncommon for young men, known as Morans, to have a period of living off the land in the wild, culminating in their induction as warriors traditionally requiring them to kill a lion.
