Julius Sello Malema African PanAfricanParliament Charumbira is a tribalist, but he suggested a good thing 'dialogue to form GNU without elections' it's reasonable. Our elections will always be messy & bloody.
Jens Ulrik Høgh It's more than two things. A third is that local people will attempt to make up for lost income by increasing the rate of hunting (selling more hunts at lower rates to locals) and/or exploiting wildlife in other ways (e.g., selling their body parts such as tusks, horns, or bones)
Excellent coverage of the results of an important study. Well done, Rachel Fobar and Timothy Kuiper! nationalgeographic.com/animals/articl…
This is quite timely given the Henry Smith MP PMB about #trophy hunting - some perspectives on the inequity & #conservation ineffectiveness of such blanket bans, led by Douglas Clark conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
Community Leaders Network of Southern Africa I loved reading your story. You are a real gift and trailblazer for your country. I wish you the best of luck and success
Is India handing over its natural wealth to the agenda of NGOs? Why should we follow what CITES says? What can recent WLPA amendments lead to? MoEF&CC

Caroline Lucas Campaign to Ban Trophy Hunting Dr. Jane Goodall & the Jane Goodall Institute Born Free Foundation Shame when it is likely to endanger the species you're hoping to protect. As a conservation expert it is extremely frustrating when people like yourself don't follow the evidence. Guess I won't be voting Green.
Community Leaders Network of Southern Africa While #localcommunities are too poor to hire lobbyists like super rich celebrities do, they have the capacity to encroach these wildlife reserves to oblivion. Unless wildlife has utility value for #localcommunities , it will not be tolerated in their lands. Think smart & long-term
Well said Ryan Dalton - I too dislike trophy hunting but am troubled by the misinformation and neo-colonialism in this debate, especially from people who have never been to Africa. I love wildlife, respect the local communities + strive to keep an open mind. 👇
Great piece by Charles Jonga in the Mail+, yet again showing that the costs & benefits of wildlife presence are complex, and sometimes terrible for local people. The UK should support nuanced, locally led #conservation not hypocritical policies. dailymail.co.uk/debate/article…
