MADAGASCAR 2024. Sustainable Wildlife Management (SWM) Programme activities

13 June 2024. Ambatofotsy, Madagascar. A local hunter recreated a traditional lemur trap to show what it looked like. The SWM Programme in Madagascar promotes the sustainable use of non-protected wildlife species and an increase in farmed fish and poultry to reduce wild meat consumption. This will help improve food security while conserving endemic species like lemurs.
