The ongoing drought that has its grip on most parts of Namibia has not spared wildlife either, the environment ministry says.  The drought is also severely impacting conservation efforts, but has not yet led to increased mortalities, reduction of wildlife numbers or any endangered species, environment ministry spokesperson Romeo Muyunda stated.  While responding to questions by New Era, revealed the scarcity of rainfall in the affected regions has resulted in a dire shortage of water and grazing resources for wildlife. "We are currently busy with an assessment to establish the impact of drought on conservation. We know for a fact that the drought has an adverse impact on grazing and water for animals in both national parks and conservancies," he said. In anticipation of the negative impact of the drought situation, the ministry is managing the current grazing vegetation and water resources, and reducing wildlife numbers is some parks where numbers exceed available grazing and water.
