Detailed Solution

Examples of the game reserves created by colonial powers in Kenya are Maasai Mara and Samburu National Park.
Kenya, along with present-day Tanzania, was home to one of Africa's most popular pastoral communities, the Maasais. However, the colonisers made the life of the pastoralists miserable. They appropriated the vast grazing lands of the pastoral communities for reasons like establishing white European settlements and creating game reserves. Game or wildlife reserves were an area of land that was marked as protected from hunting and poaching. They were designed to prohibit the locals from hunting and grazing their herds. Thus the elite Europeans preserved the game populations for their hunting. One of the game reserves created by colonial powers in Kenya is Maasai Mara.
