Conservation Through Ethical Hunting

Well-managed hunting keeps wild land wild. Revenue from our safaris pays for [anti-poaching patrols, water points, community projects], and meat from every hunt goes to [local villages].

How Hunting Funds Conservation

Wildlife survives where it is worth more alive on the land than the land is worth cleared for farming. Hunting gives large wild areas an income: daily rates and trophy fees pay for the people, vehicles and water that keep an area wild.

Hunting takes place on quotas set each year by the Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority, so only a small, sustainable number of animals is taken from each area.

People

Community Projects and CAMPFIRE

Under Zimbabwe's CAMPFIRE programme, rural communities living alongside wildlife receive a share of the revenue from hunting on their land. That income funds schools, clinics and water points, and gives communities a reason to protect wildlife.
