Etosha National Park received two trucks from the Environment and Tourism Ministry on Saturday. The vehicles will help with anti-poaching work, road care, fence fixes, and general park maintenance. Environment minister Indileni Daniel said the trucks will support efforts against poachers, maintain tourist roads and fences, create firebreaks, and preserve the park.
The ministry bought a Mercedes-Benz 33 Series Dropside Truck and a Powerstar Chassis Cab Water Tank Truck through the Game Products Trust Fund for N$7 million. The trucks will bring water to anti-poaching teams and workers in the field, assist fence construction crews, and help with road upkeep. They might also serve other national parks when needed. Daniel asked staff to use the vehicles responsibly because they play an important role in protecting the park.
