I think private farms are fine to carry on for a few months. \O

They are very organised and operate parallel to the more corruption-prone government areas. 0()

And for a long time being fundraising for anti-poaching will be much more difficult, with the economic crisis coming donations may dry up and people will spend less on travelling.
