MZUZU GAME RESERVE ESTABLISHES STRICT RULES OVER ILLEGAL ENTRY

Mzuzu game reserve has restricted their rules over people entering in Sanctuary without permission.
Speaking in an interview the division officer Peter ward has said this on surtady 9th march when mzuzu government students visited mzuzu sanctuary for education purposes.
“People are entering in the game reserve even during night hours especially those people surrounding this area”
He added that back in days people were being given a chance to enter in Sanctuary if asks for permission, hence it has been an advantage to take the risk aiming at poaching and charcoal burning.
“Since Mzuzu game reserve is one of the tourism Centre in the northern region, individuals have the responsibility to protect the nature environment and resources as well as right to report on individuals involving in such practices which include deforestation and other things.”
According to George Chipofya one of the workers at Mzuzu game reserve people were taking the rules for granted despite the punishment given to them were not stiff.
“Workers are really doing their best to protect the forest but due to illegal entry it has been a challenge to conserve the wildlife”
Despite challenges we face, this can endangers some people’s life since there are some animals that passes during the night hours Chipofya said.
