P.S.M. Berry and Norman Carr proposed a scheme to assist the anti-poaching arm of the Department primarily to protect the major targets of the poachers, the rhino and elephant. The 'Save the Rhino' project was established with the assistance of IUCN, WWF, wildlife artist David Shepherd and naturalist Peter Scott. With the funds provided by these organizations and individuals, together with those raised locally, Berry was appointed to raise an anti-poaching cadre to conduct mobile patrols of Wildlife scouts, seconded from the Department, and to assist with research projects. In order to raise funds for this project, Norman Carr donated Chinzombo Lodge, and Berry then managed this on behalf of Save the Rhino project under a local board of trustees.
