Africa-Press – Mozambique. The National Administration of Conservation Areas (ANAC) is planning to create a biodiversity conservation area in Palma district, Cabo Delgado province, in response to the unbridled exploitation of resources there.
The intention was put forward last week in the city of Pemba by the institution’s deputy director, Jorge Fernando, stressing that “the forest, animal and ecological potential in Palna district has led the government to declare it a key biodiversity area”.
The scene of the largest natural gas exploration investment in the country in particular, Palma has a rich biodiversity which, according to the source, quoted by Terra magazine, justifies its transformation into Cabo Delgado’s second conservation area, after the Quirimbas National Park.
