VICTORIA Falls Anti-Poaching Unit (VFAPU) has received a major boost in its operations from African Sun (Afsun), which handed the unit US$21 000 to cater for the 16-member scouts’ full-year salaries and medical aid.
The Afsun’s one-year sponsorship comes as a major boost to VFAPU’s wildlife and natural resources conservation efforts.
