Description
Expand the conservation successes in zakouma national park (ZNP), chad, to the greater zakouma ecosystem (GZE), representing a ten-fold increase in wildlife habitat under improved management and protection. This project will extend efforts beyond the ZNP boundary, including siniaka minia faunal reserve and other critical wildlife corridors, to ensure the continued increase of the elephant population, which has seen steady growth to over 550 individuals under african parks management, as well as the protection of kordofan giraffe, of which half of the global population is found in ZNP, and other key wildlife species, by working with the local communities, addressing conservation and land-use issues related to transhumance, and expanding law enforcement surveillance and wildlife monitoring efforts. Activities include: 1) expanding law enforcement and wildlife monitoring efforts through a combination of aerial, horseback, and river-based patrols to the broader landscape; 2) developing a stakeholder-based GZE land-use plan with local communities, including mobile pastoralists; and 3) monitoring the movements and impacts of nomadic groups around the GZE as part of a broader USFWS program focused on addressing the conservation impacts of transhumance across the sudano-sahel region.
