More research was done on game capture techniques and means and eland, springbok, gemsbok, zebra and rhino were captured and translocated successfully. More game was sold to farmers, namely 147 springbok, 46 gemsbok and 47 plains zebra. In addition 85 eland and some giraffe were taken from the Mangetti to the Waterberg Plateau Park, two rhinos to the Etosha National Park and 7 mountain zebra to the game park area of the Hardap Recreation Resort. The use of a helicopter once more proved essential for capturing game. In the case of the eland a light aeroplane was also used to drive them over long distances. During the 75 days that the eland were quarantined in the Mangetti, 21 calves were born. On the Waterberg Plateau a quarantine camp of 12 hectares was erected, surrounded by a game-proof camp of 1 O00 hectares. The increase in prices for game to a more realistic level did not deter interested farmers and there are still waiting lists for the various species. An extensive survey of all game as well as aloes, fresh water fish and certain bird species was undertaken towards the end of the year. The main purpose of this survey is to obtain an idea of the numbers and distribution of the 2 various game species.
