Game
Controlled Areas (GCA’s) are another type of protected areas provided for in
the Wildlife Conservation Act (WCA). But unlike the Game Reserves, land and
resource uses in GCA’s other than wildlife are not restricted under the law;
residence, cultivation, and livestock keeping are all unrestricted.
Large
tracts of Tanzania outside the network of National Parks and Ngorongoro
Conservation Area are devoted to wildlife conservation. Two other categories of
conservation are allowed under, the Wildlife Conservation Act of 1074. These
are Game Reserves and Game Controlled Areas. in Game Controlled Areas, human
settlement and the grazing of livestock are unrestricted, but hunting of
wildlife is only permitted under licence.
Because
GCA’s allow residence and human activity and were created on areas of
traditional use and settlement, many GCA’s are entirely overlapping with
customarily managed village lands. In GCA’s, tourist hunting administered by
the Wildlife Division and resident hunting managed by the districts is the
primary form of wildlife use.
Tanzania
has 38 Game Controlled Areas (GCA) and part of the game controlled areas
include Selous, Rungwa, Moyowosi, Serengeti, Burigi, Malagarasi, Moyowosi,
Nikonga, Kigosi, Loliondo and Masailand
