The government says it will soon start the selection process of the 2022 resident hunting for purposes in Game Management Areas ( GMAs) and open areas across the country. Ministry of Tourism Permanent Secretary Evans Muhanga says the government is aware of the importance of resident hunting as it is a key source of acquiring legal game meat for many households’ needed food security, especially in game areas.
Mr Muhanga adds that government, through his ministry, plans to come up with strategic plans that he says will have a unique selling point for all the National parks that can attract tourists.
He said this will help the Government to know what is where, and what needs to be done to improve the protected areas. Mr Muhanga said all national parks in Zambia are unique as they offer different opportunities hence the need to understand these dynamics if they are to fully benefit the country.
He said this after a familiarization tour of the West Lunga National Park and the Game Management Areas (GMAs).
