You might be wondering what is so special about Moremi Game Reserve. I remember reading in OLM magazine that the tribal Batawana people were concerned about the effect the hunting was causing on the rich wildlife in their habitat. They decided to vacate the land so that it could be used for conservation. The reserve is named after the last tribal chief Moremi III.
In this country, where you keep hearing about poaching and people killing animals that happen to stray into their villages from nearby forest areas, the story of Moremi sounds straight out of some fairy tale :-(
