ReubenE:
Nigeria as a country is a wild life itself because of the obvious lack of control.

There is no difference between a Lion killing zebras and Buffaloes for meal, and herds men killing farmers, women and children for pleasure.
Being a Nigerian is enough wildlife already, so Yankari game reserve should keep where it is to itself.

Real animal lovers are advised to go to Tanzania and Kenya to see natural animals, and not the ones in Aso Rock and Yankari......

Nigeria, the giant of Africa is not only blessed with the best rainforest, flora, it also has exciting wildlife sanctuaries and preservation centres that are located in different parts of the country. So, if you are a wildlife lover, you do not need to visit South Africa, Kenya or Tanzania to see the wild. There are lovely and beautiful wildlife destinations in Nigeria. I share some of them.
