Chief Musungwa has appealed to the Ministry of Tourism and Natural resources to reconstruct the Kafue National park fence to prevent elephants from destroying crops in his Chiefdom.
The Chief said that elephants have destroyed maize crops in his area, an incident he said has forced farmers to sleep in their fields to scare aware the elephants.
Chief Musungwa observed that ever since the fence was removed, there has been an increase in the number of elephants invading villages in his Chiefdom.
The Chief said that recently some elephants invaded his village and destroyed a crush pen for cattle near his palace in Basanga.
The traditional leader further urged government to consider cropping the elephants population in order to reduce on crop damage in his Chiefdom.
