This week, PeaceParks.TV delves into a crucial conservation effort in Malawi’s Nyika National Park, where orchids are under threat from illegal poaching. Led by Norman English, Peace Parks Foundation’s Counter Poaching Coordinator, the orchid rescue team is carefully replanting thousands of tubers seized from poachers in an effort to restore the park's precious plant population. Nyika boasts over 200 orchid species, including unique varieties found nowhere else on Earth, making this rescue mission vital for preserving biodiversity. These spectacular flowers are also an important draw for tourists.
This ongoing work in Nyika is being driven forward by a landmark co-management agreement between the Government of Malawi and Peace Parks. Partnerships and teamwork highlight the dedication to safeguarding the park’s diverse ecosystems, encouraging tourism and ensuring a thriving future for #NatureWithoutBorders in Malawi.
Stay tuned to PeaceParks.TV as we follow this rehabilitation story and other incredible conservation initiatives.
