Ministry defends jumbos in routine farm rampages
INCIDENTS of elephants threatening the well being of villagers in various areas by rampaging farms and even attacking individuals doesn’t arise from an increase in the number of elephants,, the government has declared.
Mary Masanja, the Deputy Minister for Natural Resources and Tourism, told the National Assembly yesterday that the number of jumbos in Tanzania is currently lower than it was 10 years ago when the conflicts were fewer.
In 2009 there were 134,000 elephants but due to poaching the number plummeted to 43,000 by 2014 and in 2020, the number had climbed steadily to around 60, 000 – less than half the number in 2009.
