🐘 National Wildlife & Biodiversity Agency

Establish an independent national agency to protect ENAT HAGER’s wildlife, habitats and biodiversity, while supporting communities whose livelihoods depend on healthy land and ecosystems.

🌳
Protected habitats

Create and manage national parks, wildlife reserves, wetlands, forests, migration corridors and marine protected areas using science-based plans and community consultation.

🦏
Endangered species

Monitor threatened species, restore habitats, support recovery programmes and prevent illegal hunting and wildlife trafficking.

🧑‍🔬
Research and expertise

Employ trained ecologists, veterinarians, rangers and conservation scientists; fund biodiversity surveys and collaborate with universities.

🤝
Community partnership

Involve local and Indigenous communities in decisions, provide fair compensation for verified wildlife damage, create conservation jobs and support sustainable livelihoods.

🚑
Rescue and animal welfare

Operate licensed wildlife rescue and rehabilitation centres, respond to injured animals and human-wildlife conflict, and apply humane veterinary standards.

🌍
Climate and ecosystem resilience

Restore degraded land, protect watersheds and coastal ecosystems, prevent invasive species and include biodiversity in infrastructure planning.

Enforcement, transparency and public access

  • ▸Train professional wildlife rangers with clear legal authority, safety procedures, human-rights safeguards and independent complaint mechanisms.
  • ▸Enforce wildlife protection and anti-trafficking laws through lawful investigations, evidence standards and cooperation with customs, police and neighbouring countries.
  • ▸Publish conservation targets, species and habitat assessments, budgets, permits and annual reports, while protecting sensitive locations of vulnerable species.
  • ▸Regulate tourism, research, wildlife trade and commercial use through science-based permits, animal-welfare rules and independent inspections.
  • ▸Provide environmental education and nature-based tourism that benefits local communities without damaging habitats.
  • ▸Use long-term funding, transparent procurement and independent scientific review to measure results and prevent corruption.

The agency should balance biodiversity protection with food security, community rights, sustainable development and animal welfare. Conservation decisions should be evidence-based, lawful and publicly accountable.
