The Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park was established on 7 April 1999 with the signing of an agreement between South Africa and Botswana in which the two countries undertook to manage their adjacent national parks – GemsbokNational Park in Botswana and Kalahari Gemsbok National Park in South Africa – as a single ecological unit.
With this park both South Africa and Botswana benefit by ensuring the long-term conservation of the valuable wildlife resources and ecosystem in the area.
