Namibia to Cull Over 700 Wild Animals Amid Drought
Namibia’s MEFT announced plans to cull 83 elephants including 21 in the north-western region, where desert-adapted elephants roam. This small population represents one of only two such groups in Africa with the other located in Mali. The ministry say that the culling is necessary to reduce grazing pressure and provide meat to local communities affected by the drought.
