This annual report provides detailed insights into wildlife trends based on data from the North-West game count, focusing on the number of animals observed per 100 km driven. It highlights locally rare species and monitors mortalities, with no recorded deaths during recent patrols. The report features an index of predator sightings and assesses the performance of natural resource management, including human-wildlife conflict and poaching incidents. Additionally, it addresses weak areas requiring attention and evaluates the effectiveness of interventions in wildlife conservation.
