Yesterday, in Mutwanga I found a boy from the town with bush meat. In this case, it was the meat of a Colobus Monkey which the boy had trapped within the park.
It is forbidden to eat Colobus, and so we had to confiscate all the meat that he had in the bag to verify that it was all colobus meat, and to start an investigation. We also found out which part of the forest the boy had trapped the monkey and so will increase our patrols of that area.
Nothing will happen to the boy. It is the military who use him to trap monkeys, he doesn’t do it by his own choice, and so we let him free.
