KAMPALA, Uganda (AP) - Cattlemen who have been temporarily resettled in Uganda's popular Queen Elizabeth National Park are poisoning lions and hyenas to protect their herds, damaging the park's ability to attract tourists, authorities said Thursday
The herders are awaiting government resettlement, authorities said.
"We have seen a big decline in large predators in the areas these people are occupying," said Tom Okello, the park's chief warden.
