  1. Orupembe WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT & UTILISATION PLAN VISION The inhabitants of Sesfontein Conservancy benefit from its wildlife and other natural resources through good management and conservation WILDLIFE POPULATION THRESHOLDS Conservancy size = 356,500 ha To better visualise population numbers, imagine a 5000ha farm and calculate densities of the population for this farm by dividing the estimate by 70. This gives a standard Index – Numbers per 5000ha farm – which is easy to understand in practical terms. Compare the density of what you have with the densities in the last column of the table above. If greater, then that species has reached its threshold and can be harvested at higher off-take rates. • RECOMMENDED HARVEST OFF-TAKE RATES • Off-take rates & types of off-take change as desired population densities are reached • # Only males will be hunted until desired population sizes are reached • ## Females may be harvested once desired population sizes have been reached Supported by WWF Norway, Norad, ICEMA
