Dziko la South Africa latsegula nyengo yosaka nyalugwe patatha zaka ziwiri za chisomo. Dipatimenti yoona za chilengedwe yapereka chilolezo chowombera nyalugwe ziwiri ku KwaZulu Natal ndi zisanu ku Province la Limpopo. Akambukuwo akhale amphongo azaka zisanu ndi ziwiri kapena kuposerapo.
Chigamulochi chikubwera pambuyo pa ziro quota mu 2016 ndi 2017 ndipo ndi zotsatira za kutsimikiza kwa Scientific Authority kuti kusaka akambuku m'madera ena tsopano ndi kokhazikika. The Scientific Authority inamaliza kuti kusaka akambuku sikungawononge moyo wa nyalugwe m’thengo.
Izi zadetsa nkhawa anthu oteteza zachilengedwe, omwe amatsutsa kuti dipatimenti yoona za chilengedwe (DEA) ilibe umboni wokwanira wasayansi woti achite izi.
Michele Pickover wa EMS Foundation adati malamulo ndi malamulo omwe analipo anali osakwanira kuthana ndi ziwopsezo zambiri zomwe nyalugwe amakumana nazo ndipo maziko asayansi a chisankho cha DEA anali ochepa komanso amatsutsidwa kwambiri.
"Kuyimitsidwa kwazaka ziwiri sikungakhale nthawi yokwanira kuti zowononga komanso zosakhazikika zakusaka zikho zisinthidwe kapena kuti zotsatira zake ziyesedwe moyenera," adatero. "Kusaka zikho ndikuwopseza kupitilizabe kukhalapo kwawo komanso kumakhudza kwambiri momwe angatetezere."
Bongani Tembe wa nthambi yoona za chitukuko cha zachuma, zokopa alendo ndi chilengedwe m’boma la KwaZulu-Natal, wati KZN idapatsidwa ntchito yosaka nyalugwe m’mwezi wa June. kulengeza kwa anthu adalengezedwa ndi Nduna ya DEA Edna Molewa masiku angapo apitawo (August 12).
Malinga ndi a Brent Coverdale, wapampando wa bungwe la Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife, wapampando wa Leopard Hunting Advisory Forum, chilolezo cholola nyalugwe awiri kupita ku KZN “chachokera pandondomeko yathu yoyang’anira chigawo ndipo chikuwoneka kuti n’chokhazikika.”
Povomereza kugaŵidwaku, Bungwe la Sayansi lidalimbikitsa kuti pasapezeke kusaka komwe kukuyenera kuchitika komwe kambuku kwachepa kapena komwe kulibe chidziwitso champhamvu chasayansi chokhudza kuchuluka kwa akambuku. Komabe, sizikudziwika ngati detayi ilipo.
"Mkhalidwe wawo wapano komanso kugawa kwawo zikuwonetsa kuti kuchuluka kwawo kukuchepa kwambiri," akutero Pickover. "Sikungowonongeka kwa malo okhala, komanso kutayika kwa nyama, kulandidwa monyanyira komanso kosakhazikika chifukwa cha zosangalatsa, kupha nyama mopanda tsankho chifukwa cha malonda ndi kuphana mopanda tsankho monga kupha misampha ndi kubwezera chilango ndi poizoni kapena mfuti za alimi."
