Somethings To Write About You

A highway through the Serengeti?

Grzimek What probably would say to that? Over a period article I am today to hear that the Tanzanian government is planning to build from 2012 through the middle of the legendary national park, a highway. It sounded to me as absurd that I really thought that it must act this is a joke, unfortunately, no .

Such a road would not only the annual migration of interfere with wildebeest, zebra and more from the drier southern part of the Serengeti to the water holes in the north, but also to observe that the northern park boundaries would be more densely populated than is currently the case. The result would be even more incidents between settlers and animals that are too stupid to stick to a cartographic boundary.

I was 12 years ago been in the Serengeti and well, the streets have more Belgian than German levels ... But that's part and you pay that price gladly, if it receives a pristine environment. Tourism is a major source of revenue, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater next door are absolute Magnets-I can not imagine that it would scare the tourists Sun to signal

To the Government of Tanzania that this construction project will not proceed secretly and quietly, but has become internationally known, you can at change.org the official petition Site savetheserengeti.org sign ( is sent to ambassadors and cabinet members), and / or join the Facebook page "Stop the Serengeti Highway .

 Sorry- Bild ist anscheinend weg.
