Improving Human Impacts

Because of the many national parks that have been established, the status of the protected areas represents the highest level of resource protection that can be provided in Serengeti. In order to maintain the balance between people and the savanna, natives need to reduce the amount of overgrazing and farming. Further, more national parks need to be established to conserve the flora and fauna of this ecosystem. Regarding poaching, the best way to reduce this illegal practice is to offer incentives for the natives in the region. Despite the many proposals, efforts will not improve unless the government provides the natives with better alternatives to gain their necessities. One such effort is the establishment of Wildlife Management Areas which allow natives to hunt in specific areas. Most importantly, the conservation of the Serengeti will benefit most from educating the natives on alternatives and the need to protect the ecosystem.
