:( Thanks Cher!

We have had several reports from distraught Kariba residents in the past couple of months regarding the alarming decimation of the wildlife there. The crocodile farm near Charara, owned jointly by National Parks and Lake Harvest Fisheries, has 23,000 hungry crocodiles that require 9 tons of meat per month. Due to the fact that the number of elephants has subsequently declined to a critical level, they have decided to stop shooting the elephants and target the hippos instead. We are now receiving reports that it is becoming quite rare to see a hippo in the area - in fact, it's quite rare to see any animals at all.

We have also heard that the crocodile farm is not quite as lucrative as expected because people are not as keen to buy crocodile products as they once were. It would appear that nobody is benefiting from the senseless slaughter of our wildlife except the crocodiles.

In the wild it is the fittest who win the survival game but this is obviously not in the wild and nor is it a fair game just game for food and greed.

Stupid humans....playing games with nature again...a sorry state of affairs indeed. Ironic they kill to feed the crocodiles only to kill the crocodiles for belts and shoes later. For What? a few dollars??? Only to lose their precious wildlife.
