Project objectives
It is expected that the law enforcement teams will be able to remove many hunting tents and settlements illegally encroaching the park and to arrest the responsible people. This should lead to an immediate decrease in illegal activity within the park, which, in the long term, will lead to a stabilization of the animal populations within the Proposed Grebo National Park.
This project is implemented by Zoological Society of London.
