Human Wildlife conflict and co-existing with wildlife remains a critical part of our conservation efforts because the balance between protecting livestock and the livelihoods of the community while protecting wildlife from poaching, remains the key to advancing our conservation efforts in the national park.
We have completed the freezer storage project in Mana pools which will allow us to continue to provide meat rations to 80 rangers and their families in the area. Our ranger ration programs is currently supply 1080KG of beef meat to the community on a month basis. The aim of this project is to reduce wildlife poaching in the nation park which is on the increase as many of the community will turn to poaching wildlife to feed their families. The freezer storage which is powered by solar power will store the meat supply that is distributed to rangers monthly.
This project will go a long way towards increasing the wildlife population in the area.
