Tikki Hywood foundation has donated modern technologies to Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority (ZimParks) to boost their wildlife rescue and rehabilitation drive.
According to the foundation’s founder Lisa Hywood said, the modern technologies will accurately boost monitoring Pangolins.
“Today is a historic occasion, marking yet another world, first step for pangolin conservation, led by Zimbabwe.
“As a nation, we have recognized this endangered mammal and its environmental importance, and we have come together as conservation partners to design and implement expert solutions to a growing global concern,” she said.
“We appreciate the support of ZimParks in accepting these First Responder Handbooks, the Pangolin Boxes, and supporting our launch of mobile applications that will help law enforcement in their role of securing justice for wildlife in Zimbabwe.”
While receiving the donation on behalf of the organisation, Zimparks Director for finance and administration Mr Precious Mhaka thanked the donors for boosting their efforts and pledged ZimParks’ commitment towards wildlife conservation.
“Wildlife conservation encompasses many actions. One such action, is the collaboration between private stakeholders and the mandated authorities in this global battle against illegal wildlife trafficking,” said Mr Mhaka.
