- ItemGuidelines for the harvesting of game for meat export 2010(AgriPublishers, 2010) Van Schalkwyk, D. L.; Hoffman, L. C.; Hemberger, M. Y.; Magwedere, K.The wildlife industry in Namibia has shown tremendous growth over the past decades and is currently the only extensive animal production system that is expanding. Tourism, live sales and trophy hunting can, however, not alone sustain further growth. Harvesting wildlife for the purpose of meat production is a viable option since there is a worldwide demand for healthy and high-quality meat proteins. The need to hygienically harvest game spearheaded the writing of this guideline booklet for Namibian game harvesting teams. This booklet does however not replace any Act or Regulation with regard to the harvesting of game for meat export.
