Marine Launchmaster Training & Boat Operation
Nsefu Wildlife works to assure that all of our team members are properly trained!
Two Nsefu Wildlife team members recently completed a special 14 day course as Marine Launchmaster.
The training has brought a lot of benefits to the foundation as we have personnel within our ranks who can handle marine issues with full backing of the Law.
Now that they're certified, they took charge of a borrowed Bio Carbon river boat and picked up much needed supplies.
Thank you to all of our supporters, your donations make this kind of training possible.

Borehole Post Repair Meeting & Discussion
Nsefu Wildlife working with the community to solve problems.
The Nsefu Wildlife team members repaired the local watering borehole that had recently trapped a baby elephant. We fortunately were able to rescue the baby elephant, read the full story HERE!
We're hoping to raise funds to help with drilling a second borehole for the village and leave the older borehole for wildlife.
The older watering borehole, which is one kilometer from the village, would be dug out more so that wildlife can more easily access it. This action will help to reduce human-elephant conflict.
We would like to come to an official agreement with the village soon, so that we can begin drilling the borehole as soon as the funds are available. In return for the new borehole, we're going to require that the villagers report any suspicious poacher activity and also not to obtain water from the older borehole, so animals can access it without conflict.
