Five villages which control the Ikona wildlife management area in Serengeti district, are set to earn Sh570 million for leasing part of their land to a hunting company during the next three year.
Serengeti District Council chairman John Ngoina told journalists here yesterday that the land is to be leased to Grumeti Reserves Limited, an American hunting company. Villages to benefit from the lease funds and which plan to invest the same in community related projects are Natta, Nyakitono, Nyichoka, Park Nyigoti and Robanda.
The hunting company will be paying the villages Sh190 million annually during the next three years. The hunting company will also pay another Sh100 million fee to the district council as hunting quota during the same period.
The funds will be distributed to the wards to mainly to support community-initiated projects.

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......
"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."
