Fast forward to the Global March 2017
This report from Moses…
Our march started somehow late due to transport issues but was successful at the end .
Over 500 people attended and education to community members living next to elephants homes of Queen Elizabeth national park and Bwindi impenetrable national park was done .
So far we are seeing positive results .
A new group of reforming poachers is under process and information about wildlife crime is coming in more than before leading to rescue of wildlife like pangolins .
We also hope to make some arrests on ivory dealers as information flow is available now due to awareness made during the same time .
Way to go Moses! Stay tuned for the report on a remarkable pangolin rescue.
