"content": "conservation and empower communities to conserve and integrate their livelihoods with conservation. In half a century, West Africa lost all their lions. In North Africa, in around 100 years, they have also lost all their lions. East Africa is on the blink. These are the last species on earth. I have been thinking so much about some of the things that we say and the ways in which we debate about human-wildlife conflict. We bear no responsibility to these species. We look at it at an angle of what we have lost. However, we are the ones blocking their routes and in the way of their habitant. Therefore, it is time, as leaders, we started to look at conservation a bit more broadly and look at it beyond the protected areas and poaching. This is because poaching has been contained in many ways. We still work on rhino poaching. We have just about 700 rhinos in this country. We need to start looking at this issue. As leaders, under our watch, the last species on earth will be extinct. We are defining it from the point of view of compensation. We are not saying that human life is not important. It is important and sacred. However, let us take responsibility for the wildlife as well. I urge this House and all our leaders to stop making certain remarks that will make the communities to arm themselves and kill animals. I support this Bill and appeal to our leadership----"
