Summary
This paper develops a hunter-agrarian household model to explore the effect on wildlife conservation and human welfare in Integrated Conservation and Development Projects (ICDPs) in the Serengeti. The theoretical model specifies two alternative ICDP designs for benefit transfers to the local community: distribution of game meat from managed culling and transfers of income from the tourism sector, and secondly, imposing, on the local people, a continuous risk of being expelled from the benefit transfers if caught in illegal hunting.
