Here is a problem which WWF has to deal with: In Indonesia there is a wildlife park for endangered animals such as tigers, elephants and rhinos.It is very large and has some of the best farmland. Some poor farmers have moved into the park to grow coffee. Although this is not allowed, the coffee is excellent quality and has sold very well. Now 20 per cent of the wildlife park is used in this way. WWF is very concerned about it as this is a very important park for endangered animals. However, they know that the farmers are very poor and need to have a secure income. What should be done?

Can they be employed to work in the park? What other ways can you think of to deal with this problem?
