WINDHOEK - The Game Products Trust Fund (GPTF) has reinvested close to N$100 million into conservation efforts such as wildlife protection and anti-poaching.
A bulk of those funds went to projects and activities aimed at wildlife protection and management, anti-poaching initiatives, wildlife research, studies and surveys, the development and protection of water infrastructure and support towards the management of human wildlife conflict.
The main recipients of the funds provided by the Game Products Trust Fund is the Ministry of Environment and Tourism, communal conservancies and rural communities and non-governmental organizations.
The fund is annually capitalised with funds collected from the sale of trophy hunting concessions, the removal of problem causing animals, the head levies on the live export of animals, the live auction of game or wildlife, and grants and donations.
That's $7 million U.S. Dollars
