of Bandia.VINCKE X., HORNICK J.-L., NJIKAM N.I., LEROY P.Abstract :
This work compares two dramatically
different types of wildlife management in Senegal, a country threatened by poaching and deforestation : the first concerns the management of the Niokolo
Koba National Park, by a public utility service and the second, the management of the Bandia Reserve, a fenced area which surface is more than thousand times lower, by private investors.
In order to do this comparison, the structure, type of management, evolution of flora and fauna, and management problems encountered for each protected
area are analysed. This comparison allows to formulate some recommendations for a sustainable management of Senegalese wildlife. Get the PDF Contact person : jlhornick@ulg.ac.be |
