1. Story
2. Ordinance 88 of 1907 proclaimed a vast game reserve reaching from the Etosha pan to the Skeleton Coast, on the order of 80,000–100,000 km2 depending on the source. The proclamation was an act of colonial administration over territory whose resident populations were not consulted, and it set the precedent that wildlife protection in the region begins with a line drawn by a government over other people's land.

Etosha was proclaimed as Game Reserve No. 2 by Ordinance 88 of 1907 covering roughly 80,000-100,000 km2, and was reduced to about 22,270 km2 in 1970 following the Odendaal Commission to release land for apartheid-era homelands; MEFT's state-of-the-parks reporting describes the current protected-area estate.
