“The African Wildlife Foundation…believe that Africa must
not become one big game park and that to ensure the future of Africa’s wild
places, conservation planning must be managed in a way that benefits Africans
themselves…
...With political will, planning and foresight, it should be possible
for Africa to have livable modern cities, well-planned infrastructure,
productive farmlands, industrial parks for manufacturing and jobs, while
retaining the Serengeti, the Okavango delta, the Kalahari desert, the Congo
basin forest and other very large natural systems with their resident wildlife.”
- Patrick Bergin, CEO of the African Wildlife Foundation
