The people of Salakope, a coastal community in the Ketu South Municipality in the Volta region of Ghana have been suffering perennially from the devastating effects of high tidal waves. According to experts, coastal erosion is caused by the melting of polar ice caps due to rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

The continuous ravaging of the sea has left the community in constant fear and anxiety, giving residents sleepless nights. The situation has also destroyed several homes and properties in the coastal community. The erosion of the beaches has also negatively affected fishing, the main source of livelihood for the communities along this coastal stretch.

The Kalakpa Wildlife Resource Reserve is located in the southeastern part of Ghana, about 120 kilometers northeast of the capital Accra and about 30 kilometers south of the Volta regional capital, Ho. The reserve covers an area of about 325km2. The Kalakpa Reserve has a spectacular combination of forests on the hills found in the middle of the reserve and along rivers and grasses on the plains of the reserve.

The Kalakpa Reserve abounds with the following animals; red-river hog, buffalo, bushbuck, waterbuck, kob, oribi, black duker, grey duker and red flanded duker. The common monkeys found are baboon, patas monkey, green monkey, spot-nosed monkey, and black and white colobus.
