ZWF Quotation to be remembered by all of todays conservation departments

ZWF Quotation to be remembered by all of todays conservation departments, especially the need for specialist knowledge, trained manpower and money, and we look to other nations to co-operate with us in this - would be nice if this message got through !!

Late Julius K. Nyerere, Arusha Manifesto, 1961

“The survival of our wildlife is a matter of grave concern to all of us in Africa. These wild creatures amid the wild places they inhabit are not only important as a source of wonder and inspiration, but are an integral part of our natural resources and our future livelihood and wellbeing.

In accepting the trusteeship of our wildlife we solemnly declare that we will do everything in our power to make sure that our children’s grand-children will be able to enjoy this rich and precious inheritance.

The conservation of wildlife and wild places calls for specialist knowledge, trained manpower and money, and we look to other nations to co-operate with us in this important task – the success or failure of which not only affects the continent of Africa but the rest of the world as well.”
