Anti-Poaching Patrols Helping Save Wildlife in Tanzania
Filed under: add to del.icio.us
A new study shows that patrols in Tanzania's Serengeti National Park have cut poaching and increased the population of black rhinoceros, elephants, and buffalo. Researchers show that herds declined after 1977, when spending on anti-poaching patrols was slashed. In the late 1980s the situation improved. Serengeti National Park is famous for its 1.5 million-plus annual animal migration to and from Maasai Mara in Kenya.
