New warden of Hwange National Park doing an excellent job
Zimbabwe Conservation Task Force (ZCTF)
August 19, 2005

It gives us great pleasure to report that the new warden of Hwange National Park is doing an excellent job and we would like to thank him for his efforts.

We have received reports that most of the pans around the Main Camp tourist routes are full of water for the first time in years. People have reported that they have never seen so much water being pumped.

The new warden is apparently also grading the roads, burning fire breaks and organizing anti-poaching patrols. What a pleasure to have such a conscientious person in charge! This is very good news for Zimbabwe's tourism industry and we hope the international community will take advantage of it and visit Hwange National Park.

Our heartfelt appreciation also goes to the Hwange Conservation Society UK who have been donating engines for the pumps and clothing for the pump attendants. Without their assistance, the pans would still be dry.

Chairman
