NO EIA FOR LIVINGSTONE LION PROJECT
The Environmental Council of Zambia has told WECSZ that no EIA had been received in respect of the Livingstone lion project, that in fact that they had not heard of it! The Livingstone branch of WECSZ reports that the project has started.
Africa Encounter and ALERT, together with Safari Par Excellence of Livingstone, await an EIA on their plan to establish a tourism project in which lion will be bred and imported into Zambia, will develop further in the Dambwa Forest, will then walk and hunt with tourists in the Mosi oa Tunya National Park, and when they are older and a danger to humans, will be released to the wild in Zambia.
