EDUCATION OF THE POPULATION
Public
education with special emphasis on hunters, is an existing program,
unfortunately this has had minimum impact on the general trends. Ignorance by
the status quo of the wildlife species and other wildlife species and the
monetary gains associated with the wildlife trade has rendered the education of
commercial hunters invalid. However this needs continued efforts. Books and
educational material need to be produced to inform the public and farmers on the
scientific production of the selected Neo-tropical wildlife species.
