Jumbos for sale as parks seek funds

(Agencies) Updated: 2014-12-24 11:18

Zimbabwe is considering the sale of as many as 62 live elephants to China, France and the United Arab Emirates because Hwange National Park, the country's biggest game reserve, is not receiving adequate state funding.

Elephants can be sold for between $40,000 and $60,000 each, depending on age, and the revenue could help meet the $2.3 million annual running costs of the park in the northwest of the country, Director for Conservation at the Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Authorities, Geoffreys Matipano, said on Thursday at Hwange.

"We are pursuing it aggressively as part of conservation efforts because we have plenty of elephants here," Matipano said. "We don't receive state funding and we rely on selling animals for our day-to-day operations, we are nowhere near what we want."

The size of Zimbabwe's economy has halved since 2000, according to the government, after the seizure of commercial farms for redistribution to subsistence farmers slashed exports and triggered a near-decade long recession.

Funding for services such as national parks has dried up along with the money needed for the maintenance of infrastructure such as roads and water supplies.

While African elephants are considered endangered, with about 470,000 left in the wild in 37 countries, about 300,000 of them live in the southern African nations of Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe and South Africa, according to the African Wildlife Foundation.

Population control options have been limited by public opposition to culling, a method last used in Zimbabwe in 1998, with contraception and translocation considered expensive.

Between 1960 and 1998, 46,000 elephants were culled in Hwange, Lovelater Sebele, the park's resident ecologist, said.

At 14,651 square kilometers, about the size of Connecticut in the United States, Hwange has 43,000 elephants against a carrying capacity of 15,000, Matipano said.

Water is supplied for the animals through 80 bore hole pumps that use solar power or diesel to pump the groundwater to the surface at an annual cost of $500,000. Elephants, which can weigh 6.5 metric tons, can drink 200 liters of water each a day.

"Obviously, these huge numbers put pressure on us on how to manage them and also how to conserve the environment," Matipano said. "It's a costly exercise to have these animals at one single place, because we spend a lot of money to provide the water for the animals."

The elephants would be rounded up and kept in an enclosure for three weeks before being shipped by cargo plane to their destinations.

"The biggest issue is how they will be treated once they reach their destination," said Andrew Taylor, a spokesman for the Johannesburg-based Endangered Wildlife Trust.

"How will they be housed, what will they be used for, will they be kept in tiny enclosures?"

Buyers from the UAE are seeking 15 elephants, China 27 and France 15 to 20, Matipano said.
