The reality of the matter is that most people live in a fairly cosseted environment where
their only contact with the wilderness areas of Africa is through the 'not always entirely
accurate', television and other media. When this happens, history shows that the game is quickly
wiped out by illegal poaching.SummaryWhere African hunting is practised in a properly controlled manner, it
can and does produce large financial and conservation benefits. If the dominating species is not
controlled in numbers, then not only will grazers and browsers suffer, but also the predators
and scavengers and eventually, even the dominating species itself may eat itself out of its
habitat resulting in mass die off by starvation. The hunters also provide regular employment for
them and the money is used to finance schools, hospitals, and safe fresh water bore
holes etc, free from such diseases such as bilharzia and amoebic dysentery (both of which
kill and maim many people in Africa). And would then decide on how many of
each species can be healthily maintained by the ecosystem, and therefore how many of each
species can be hunted whilst maintaining a healthy balance of age groups and sex. Everything
eats everything else in the African bush and the ecosystem of Africa is extremely sensitive
and requires careful, scientific management if the wild places and it's inhabitants are to survive
into the future for coming generations to enjoyThe hunting safaris that we offer to clients
are high income for the country involved, and low impact for the environment (which is
the opposite of photo safaris) and are all part of the game management programme run
by the government of whichever country the hunt takes place in. This rescue was made
possible largely by allowing a few males who were past breeding age and attacking and
killing younger bulls to be hunted by sport hunters. It also helps resolve the conflicting
interests of human and animal populations. This camp, (which would not be there if 925 silver it
were not for the hunter) provides employment for many local and international staff. Despite what
most media and Walt Disney will have you believe, hardly any African animal ever dies
of old age. In African countries where hunting does not happen due to political upheaval
or is banned, the game has no value to the local populations. It is in
those countries where sport hunting does not take place that the wildlife is at greatest
risk.One of the greatest and most successful examples of modern species recovery was achieved by
KZN Wildlife when they succeeded in saving the white rhino from extinction. The story of
this shameful example of political correctness and mismanagement is eloquently told in the book 'The
End of the Game' by Peter Beard.One of the best examples of using hunting as
a responsible conservation tool used to be found in the CAMPFIRE project of Zimbabwe. Some
areas have lost over 60% of their wildlife populationsBy involving the local populations, the Parks
Boards ensure that the local populations will find it more profitable to conserve the wildlife
rather than find them in the position where they have to turn to poaching the
game to feed their families. Walt Disney has a lot to answer for by way
of anthropomorphism!So let's take a look at some of the realities of life in Africa.
If one species is allowed to flourish too much it means the decline and possible
demise of other species. Examples of this might be the rise and fall of lion
populations in the Masai Mara of Kenya where hunting is not allowed, or a more
shockingly graphic example would be the crash of Elephant and other game populations that occurred
in the Tsavo region of Kenya during the drought of 1971 when the Government refused
to cull some of the respective populations to ensure sufficient food supplies for the remainder.
Professional Hunters Association of South Africa).A hunting client will pay a large sum nike tn of money
to cover his camp expenses, which pays for his full board accommodation and camp, hunting
services and the many and all the varied Government levies imposed on the hunter and
his companions. Since the political and economic collapse of Zimbabwe the CAMPFIRE project is in
decline and consequently game populations are suffering enormously from uncontrolled poaching. (Chefs, maids, cleaners etc)
He will then pay a sum of money for each animal that he hunts. Hunting
makes a crucial and essential contribution to that. The licensing system allows populations to be
effectively monitored and controlled by the relevant Game Department or Parks Board.Compared with the random
and indiscriminate slaughter carried out by poachers, selective culling by hunters can and does lead
to a healthy and balanced population and prevent one species flourishing to the detriment of
another. Hunting, especially African hunting has always been an incredibly emotive and often misunderstood subject
amongst people from the western world. This means that poaching and illegal killing is dramatically
reduced. As a result, many thousands of Elephants and a huge number of other game
animals in the area died out. All clients are also accompanied at all times by
a fully qualified and licenced Professional Hunter during their safari. Consequently the locals only see
the game as something that competes with their own survival by eating their crops and
further polluting their own water supplies. This sum is used to pay wages to the
hunting staff (local and Professional) to pay for vehicles which are maintained locally by local
labour) and a large percentage is paid to the relevant Parks Board or Game Department,
who use it to fund further game research and conservation.The hunter also spends considerable additional
amounts of hard currency and provides further employment 'in country' with local taxidermists, hotels, airlines
and air charter companies etc.All animals that are hunted are animals that would otherwise need
to be culled to maintain the balance of the ecosystem. In many parts of Africa,
wildlife has now been recognised as a valuable resource, providing it is managed wisely. These
locals not only benefit from the hunting by gaining the meat from these animals and
a percentage of the profits. Revenues from hunting where a portion is given to the
local communities, not only improves the material condition of that population, but it also gives
them a stake in the wildlife as an incentive to conserving it. The Zimbabwean Parks
Board regularly met with a delegation of locals from each area and the licenced hunting
operator for that particular area. These Professional Hunters are all regulated, examined and licenced by
the relevant National or Provincial Parks Boards and/of Game Departments. All are also members of
the relevant national Professional Hunting Association of that particular country (i.e. When this occurs, the
species that is causing it needs to be culled to maintain the balance of the
eco-system. They would also often decide on the level of trophy fee to be charged
for each animal of each species. This happens for example when one species consumes all
of one type of tree or bush to a height where the smaller species are
unable to reach to feed. All animals hunted, prior to the hunt have all been
issued with the necessary (local, national and international) licences and permits that are required to
be issued by the relevant Parks Board and CITES (Confederation of International Trade in Endangered
Species). These Professional Hunters are a group of highly qualified, knowledgeable and very professional men
and women. The high fees from these hunts have financed most of the KZN Wildlife
White Rhino breeding and research project and the same thing is now being achieved for
the black rhino in an identical manner by the same organisation.Steve 'Shakari' Robinson During his
almost three decades of working in the African hunting industry, Steve has hunted professionally in
six African countries and has a wealth of experience with dangerous game.http://www.shakariconnection.com.
