| Mitigation of negative human impacts on large carnivore populations: Niassa National Resere, Mozambique | |
| 2009 Full Book | |
The Niassa Carnivore Project serves to secure and conserve the large carnivore populations (lion, leopard, spotted hyaena and African wild dog) in Niassa National Reserve, northern Mozambique by promoting coexistence between carnivores and people. We acknowledge the costs to Niassa communities who live with carnivores while recognizing the potential of these carnivores to provide substantial ecological, cultural and economic benefits to Niassa Reserve and Mozambique. This mission is being achieved through direct mitigation of human-carnivore conflict, targeted pragmatic research, development of locally based monitoring systems, mentorship and training of local conservationists and community outreach (education and awareness). This report represents the progress that has been made towards achieving the objectives in the 2008 calendar year. |
