KNP distances itself from lion hunt advert

According to KNP managing executive, Abe Sibiya, the KNP would like to distance itself from the advertisement and its author, as there is no link between KNP and those that are involved with this hunting activity. KNP does not remove problematic lions from the KNP to be hunted elsewhere.
Fraudulent letter
He said there has been a concerning trend in recent times where certain individuals have fraudulently attached KNP's name and those of key employees in unscrupulous hunting business ventures all in an effort to attract unsuspecting clients. "A case in point is a fraudulent letter bearing the forged signatures of some of the key management personnel in the park authorising a hunt within the Makuya Game Reserve in Limpopo, managed by the provincial government."
According to Sibiya the circumstances surrounding this incident are being investigated by the SANParks Environmental Crime Investigations and legal advice is also being sought on how to pursue criminal charges against the perpetrators.
