Sustainable Wildlife Management and Utilization Plan for Conservancy Enhancement

This Wildlife Management and Utilization Plan aims to create a conducive environment for the sustainable increase of wildlife populations while promoting tourism and other conservation-related activities. With a focus on improving the livelihoods of Conservancy members and minimizing human-wildlife conflicts, the plan establishes wildlife population thresholds based on a 229,000 ha conservancy. Recommended harvest off-take rates prioritize the hunting of males until desired population sizes of certain species are achieved, supporting ongoing conservation efforts backed by organizations like WWF Norway and Norad.

  1. Sorris Sorris WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT & UTILISATION PLAN VISION A conducive environment has been created for properly managed wildlife to increase and to encourage tourism and other wildlife utilisation activities for the improvement of the livelihoods of Conservancy members, while minimising human wildlife conflict. WILDLIFE POPULATION THRESHOLDS Conservancy size = 229,000 ha. To better visualise population numbers, imagine a 5000ha farm and calculate densities of the population for this farm by dividing the estimate by 45 This gives a standard index - Numbers per 5000ha farm – which is easily to understand in practical terms. Compare the density of what you have with the densities in the last column of the table above. If greater, then that species has reached its threshold and can be harvested at higher off-take rates . RECOMMENDED HARVEST OFF-TAKE RATES Off-take rates & types of off-take change as desired population densities are reached # Only males will be hunted until desired population sizes are reached ## Females may be harvested once desired population sizes have been reached Supported by WWF Norway, Norad, ICEMA
