Gov't has no plans to cull elephants - Kereng

Just recently, a night out with colleagues ended tragically for a Kasane wildlife officer when he was trampled to death by an elephant in Kasane. The incident was by no means an isolated occurrence as countless similar others have in the past been experienced by the general public.

Despite this, yesterday minister Kereng told the ongoing 15th meeting of the Ntlo Ya Dikgosi that the decision not to resort to culling the elephants is for the local communities in the wildlife management areas to utilise the elephants to generate tangible benefits for everyone.
