We remain committed to the adherence of its protocols and rules. > We are (however) gravely concerned by the one-size fits all approach, where the banning of trade is creeping into the CITES decision-making processes. > We call upon the institution to resist the temptation of being a ‘policing institution’ and instead be a developmental one which promotes the intricate balance between conservation and sustainable utilisation of all wildlife resources. > Going forward, Zimbabwe encourages a world that embraces the principle of a shared responsibility where natural resources are utilised in accordance with the principle of sustainability. He added that safari hunting or trophy hunting in important in successful wildlife economies. He said: > As you are aware, safari hunting is a vital cog in successful wildlife economies. Proceeds obtained from hunting are reinvested towards the provision of game water, fencing and law enforcement, among other conservation initiatives. Zimbabwe currently has an elephant population of 84 000 while its ecosystem is able to carry about half the figure. *More: NewsDay* itel A50 now available on Pindula at $84 64GB storage, 2GB RAM. _ideal for light usage_ _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
