Study finds South African communities near Kruger prefer wildlife tourism over hunting for income.
Communities near South Africa's Kruger National Park prefer wildlife-friendly ways to earn a living over killing animals, according to a recent study.
The park, home to lions, elephants, and rhinos, faces challenges of high unemployment and poverty, driving illegal hunting.
While trophy hunting is allowed in 20 private reserves bordering the park, it benefits only a few.
The study suggests alternatives like wildlife viewing platforms, land leasing, and wildlife credits, which could provide stable jobs and reduce poaching.
Researchers recommend involving local communities in conservation efforts and ensuring fair benefit-sharing.
