About Mole National Park

Mole Management

The management authority of Mole National Park is Ghana’s Wildlife Division of the Forestry Commission, which is under Ghana’s Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources. The Wildlife Division is responsible for all wildlife in the country, and administers 16 Wildlife Protected Areas (PAs), five coastal Ramsar Sites, and the Accra and Kumasi Zoos. It also assists with the running of two community-owned Wildlife Sanctuaries.

The mission of the Wildlife Division is to ensure conservation, sustainable management and development of Ghana’s wildlife resources for socio-economic benefit to all segments of society.

The mandate of the Wildlife Division of the Forestry Commission of Ghana is wildlife protection and habitat/resource conservation for the sustainable benefits of present and future generations. The Division therefore educates the public and fringe communities on the prudent use of resources, and managing the protected areas for eco-tourism is one of such uses. Nature enthusiasts, students, volunteers and researchers have found out how much Ghana offers by way of wildlife and wildlife habitats, some of which offer good opportunities for adventure. Read More.
