Angola is making plans for Sport Hunting.
Sudan will also work on this.

Kenya is a good example of badly run non hunting Green Conservation.
Two examples are.
1; Amboseli and Tsavo west reserves and surrounding country have few Lion left due to local people's and dislike of Lion with the lack of value of game animals attributing to this (put a value on wildlife via tourism helps).

2; Due to the fact that Eco Tourist Safaris (Kenya's value on Wildlife) average only three to five days long means that the popular reserves such as the Masai Mara, Amboseli, Tsavo West, Meru and Samburu reserves are heavily used but only need to be a small area. The unspectacular and remote reserves are quite unpopular thus producing little tourist income so get little maintenance and support with poaching and massive human encroachment within being unrestrained. Put high paying/ low impact trophy hunters into these areas and you will see value placed on this land, Poachers and Illegal Settlers removed and a rapid increase of Wild life.




Well written.

I believe there are people eagerly awaiting Sudan becoming available to sport hunting when or if it stabilises.
