These efforts are clearly reflected on the Reserve of La Digue as well as in the numerous protected areas under the oversight of SPGA.<\/p>\n<p>The donated funds will be directed towards boosting the promotional efforts to encourage more visits to the Special Reserve which will raise public awareness of ongoing conservation efforts.<\/p>\n<p>A draw was carried out during the ceremony to designate the winner of a Facebook quiz organised by the bank for the World Wildlife Day. Rebecca Essack was the lucky winner of a guided tour of the Veuve Special Reserve offered by SPGA. SPGA expressed its warm gratitude to MCB and invited its representatives to visit the Reserve to observe the ongoing conservation project.<\/p>\n<p>Officially opened in 1982, and currently under the mandate of the SPGA, the Veuve Special Reserve on La Digue is home to the endemic Seychelles Black Paradise Flycatcher. Through its abundant trees and rich insect population, the Special Reserve provides a protected breeding and feeding habitat for the Flycatcher.<\/p>\n<p>SPGA welcomes any form of support and donations from organisations and individuals willing to contribute towards better protection of the sites under its mandate. For more details on ongoing projects of the SPGA, representatives can be reached on 4225114 or via the social media platforms.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/cape-verde\">Cape verde<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Cape verde.
