Tools of the Poaching Trade: Whip-snares
Fico Vidale comes from a hunting family; his father was a professional crocodile hunter. Fico runs his safari hunting company in the Lunga Busanga Game Management Area, which borders the Kafue National Park in Zambia.
Fico spends a lot of time and money on community upliftment and engagement, and one of the projects is beekeeping. The idea is to educate the area's people about the dangers of habitat destruction, such as cutting down trees to harvest a few pounds of honey.
Poaching is a concern, as it is in most wilderness areas in Africa, and one of the most common forms his anti-poaching team encounters is the use of whip-snares. In this video, Fico explains how the whip-snare is set.

Просмотров 1719 месяцев назад
Poachers based on the Zambian side of the Zambezi River upstream of Victoria Falls can easily monitor buffalo movement on the Zimbabwean side. As the herds move back and forth from the river to drink, the poachers can get ahead and lay their snares across established corridors. John Laing from Guides Against Poaching (GAP) has been conducting anti-poaching operations in this area for over ten y...

    I'd love to know more on the Scot management. My dad grew up on a farm in Perthshire and spent time in the hills with the local game warden, culling deer for management purposes. I was born in Australia, moved to the country 20 years ago and have enjoyed becoming a hunter, hobby farmer etc. In my state, NSW, deer have been classed as vermin, and farmers everywhere are being overrun by deer. I can't just bring myself to cull them for farmers unless i have room in my freezer, or someone else wants some meat. Venison is an epic meat. by the way, do you know what the cheapest cut of venison is? the testicles, you can find them under a buck.

    Thank you so much for this in depth explanation of what's happening in KNP as well as around the world. I learned so much from this. I never realized it was this bad & certainly had always thought it was about hunger. It wasn't until recently that I was aware of this illegal bushmeat restaurants. The people of SA are destroying themselves because when all the animals are gone, what will they have left? Tourism is extremely detrimental to the country as a whole & sadly the majority of the South Africans are blinded by this. With the government being involved, how is this ever going to end? I'm a veterinary medical student & at times like these it makes you want to stop what you're doing, give up everything just to help save these animals. Sadly in the Manyeleti the same is happening with snares, so not only in KNP. I commend all of the people who are joined in this fight to save our beautiful wildlife. God bless 🙏🏻

    I love elephants, it's my favorite animal, but I live on a different continent and don't have to directly deal with them. They are living with them in their own backyard. They should decide how to deal with their own wildlife, not someone in another country and on another continent. I hate people who don't have to deal with a problem directly, but want to dictate to others how they should handle it and what they should do.

      They do have a body called KAZA that looks into the management of resources in this region. I’m pretty sure solutions towards human wildlife conflicts will be established soon.

    These wildlife regions, w. not just tourism but also hunting, provide money for local communities. So those communities do not go out on their own hunting for meat or rhino horn or whatever. India has similar regions but are still struggling with locals to understand this is a money maker for them. Don't mess it up.

    • @theconservationimperative

      Thanks for the compliment. Most wildlife documentaries are anti-hunting, anti-utilization so that side of the story has been told countless times. We wanted to highlight the pro-utilization viewpoint.

    The Elephant population is very important in the ecology of Zimbabwe they open all of the closed areas of the boabab tree Einviroment and open all the landscape of the Savanna habitats so that all of the wildlife of Africa can thrive the thunderstorms and lighting also do the job but the population of African Elephants do the most important job
