Having a leopard safari is not the problem here… Natural resources are the wealth of a country and for a country like Sri Lanka, tourism can bring a lot of benefits if it’s done in a sustainable manner. As someone in the corporate world dealing with wildlife excursions, I think all large and small organizations alike should put pressure on the government in bringing in a limit of jeeps entering the park each day. Further, drivers and trackers should be given proper training and guidance and made to understand that protecting these animals will only mean that the natural resources could be sustained for a longer period – without really killing the goose that lays the golden egg.
