A lion relocation project for Rwanda's Akagera National Park is
getting nearer to its conclusion, after essential upgrades along the
120 km long perimeter electric fence were completed recently. The
overall height of the fence was raised to over 2 metres as well as
additional live wires near the ground installed over the entire
distance, to prevent the cats from either jumping over the fence or
else trying to dig underneath it and then come into conflict with the
villages near the park boundary.
Work was also finished on a lion boma, where the big cats, when they
arrive, will be kept for a few weeks for monitoring before being
released into the park itself. Set in the centre of the park the boma
location is thought ideal to introduce the lions to the park
environment with sufficient water and game after a period of
observation lasting several weeks. It is understood that the lions
will be collared to allow for constant monitoring of their positions
The work was carried out by park staff - the park is managed by the
Akagera Management Company, a joint venture between African Parks and
the Rwanda Development Board - and supporters of the park keen to see
a return of lions to Akagera to enrich the safari experience for
visitors to Rwanda's only savannah park.
