the Forestry Development Authority (FDA) has destroyed a large quantity of dried meat worth $7,500 in Tubmanburg, Bomi County. The move is part of the FDA’s ongoing efforts to protect Liberia’s wildlife and uphold laws aimed at preventing illegal hunting and bushmeat trade.
The dried meat was seized during a recent operation and is believed to have come from endangered species. By destroying it, the FDA is sending a clear message: illegal hunting and wildlife trade won’t be tolerated.
Bushmeat is popular in many parts of Liberia, but the FDA is pushing hard to enforce laws that protect endangered animals. This move in Tubmanburg is just one of many actions the FDA is taking to conserve Liberia’s rich wildlife and natural resources.
