From the Field: Another Gun turned in!

Back in April, 2024, the Ranger Team received a homemade shotgun from a young man who voluntarily surrendered it to us after spending much of his youth as a poacher.

He made his decision clear to the team, that after self introspection, he felt he could no longer go on killing innocent animals and was influenced by Nsefu Wildlife's conservation activities in the sector, which includes updated infrastructure, new schools, conservation and community awareness.

The shotgun, valued at 1,000 Kwacha, which is about 37 dollars, still smelled of gun powder when handed over.
