Human intervention would be like trying to put out a fire with drops of water, as the main problem is much bigger. In my opinion the only solution in the future would be to lease the area and establish private reserves, even if this affects the natural vegetation a little, creating roads would be more beneficial in the long term as the Kruger area could end up suffering invasions like the Maara, with established reserves tend to minimally guarantee the presence of inspection and the reduction of illegal hunting in these areas, even if some private reserves are not the best of examples such as manyeleti

Manyeleti is not private. It is run by the local regional government/institutions IIRC. The safari model seems to be the same but it is not privately owned. And that seems to make the difference... Reply
