The text primarily uses a cause-and-effect organizational structure. It begins by outlining the problem of human-wildlife conflict between lions and local villagers. It then describes the efforts made by the Ruaha Carnivore Project to address this issue and notes the positive outcomes of those efforts, highlighting the benefits and results achieved, such as reduced livestock losses and fewer lion deaths. Each action taken by the Project is linked to the resulting changes, illustrating a clear cause-and-effect relationship throughout the narrative.
As Africa's population of wild lions decreases, Tanzania's Ruaha National Park provides an important habitat for the remaining lion population. However, lions and local villagers living around the park often come into conflict: lions kill valuable livestock, and villagers shoot the lions. To address this issue, the Ruaha Carnivore Project has worked closely with villagers. The Project has introduced stronger fences, warning systems, and guard dogs to reduce livestock losses. To further encourage animal conservation, the Project provides education about the importance of protecting lions. Importantly, the Project has also provided benefits, such as local health care and scholarships, to compensate villagers for the dangers they endure. These efforts have paid off, as both the villagers' livestock losses and lion deaths have declined.
