Aberdeen University Expedition to Mwabyi Game Reserve. Southern Malawi. Central Africa

Abstract

The expedition arose from a request to carry out an evaluation of the ecology and wildlife resources of Mwabvi Game Reserve in the Lower Shire Valley, Southern Malawi. The Reserve has been adopted by the National Fauna Preservation Society of Malawi in agreement with the department of National parks and Wildlife, with the intention that the society should play an active role in the evaluation and development of the Reserve. The National Fauna preservation Society of Malawi offered its official recognition together with logistical support and financial assistance whilst His Excellency the Life President of Malawi, Dr. H.K.Banda, very kindly gave his approval.
