Message from Zambia Tourism:

Dear all,
 
This is an important call: We urge you to make your feelings on Zambia’s recent lifting of the big-cat hunting ban count.
 
The lifting of the ban has caused considerable debate and outcry on our social media channels. 
 
Please read the post attached here, which seems aimed at picking apart both sides of the argument around the lifting of the ban, and then answer the question/take the vote at the bottom of the post.
 
We will do our best to ensure that the Minister of Tourism, the Zambia Tourism Board, Zambia Wildlife Authority (ZAWA) and any other parties concerned in this decision, see the voting results. We want to be at the forefront of promoting ethical and inclusive tourism in Zambia and your input is invaluable in this regard.
 
To all the lodge owners and operators, please also share this post widely so we can also get the input of your clientele and prospective visitors.
