Republic of BotswanaProblemsChallenges in Botswana:•On the outskirts of the nationals parks of Botswana live many poor families aswell as parentless, hungry, underfed, neglected, abused and HIV/AIDS infectedchildren.•Many children around the protected areas and across the country do not knownor have they visited their national parks or seen the wild animals of theircountry. Therefore they have frequent fear of ”the wild animals, which are forthe tourists“.•There is very limited appreciation of the value of wildlife, including the local andnational economic values•Human-Wildlife-Conflict: Predators commonly leave protected areas, stray ontoneighboring cattle ranches and kill livestock. Livestock often secures thelivelihood of an entire family thus predation poses an existential threat. Manyfarmers don’t want to kill the predators but they lack support and knowledge ofhow to capture and translocation the predators alive. Hence, because they seeno other options, they resort to guns or toxic baits.11.04.2012 SAVE - Education & Wildlife Conservation Fund 10
