Water Supply for Wildlife
Purchase of Magni Gyrocopter for Aerial Surveillance
Funding Goal: $135,000
(including shipping)
Our fleet of Magni gyrocopters have been serving us well, but we are planning for future years and incorporating a new aircraft into the operations. The acquired gyrocopter would be used for aerial surveillance of 45 hours a month, totalling 540 hours a year.
Outcomes and Impacts
The overall expected outcome is the reduction in insecurity within the project area. This will lead to the reduced poaching of elephant and other wildlife. By preventing charcoal production and logging, the project will reduce the destruction and degradation of wildlife habitat. By anticipating elephant movements through monitoring, the project will ensure protective measures are put in place and there is a deterrent to potential threats. With any poaching that has occurred, best attempts can be made to secure any ivory within the project to remove it from the black market. It will increase the likelihood of perpetrators being arrested and brought to justice.
