This chapter is part of Result 3 “Supply of alternative protein is improved” of the Sustainable Wildlife Management (SWM) Programme. It reviews and characterizes the livestock production and grazing management systems in the three community conservancies (CCs) of Mucheni in Zimbabwe, and Inyasemu and Simalaha in Zambia, with a view to explore opportunities in the supply of alternative protein to resident communities in agreement with the theory of change of the SWM Programme in KaZa. Information and data were collected through literature reviews, qualitative and quantitative studies and surveys and general observation within the three CCs. The findings reveal that the farmers' major source of livelihood is livestock production with cattle, goats and poultry featuring as predominant species. The production systems are basic, “low input low output”.
