  • Chapter One - Imfubu 🦛
    This is Ryan and Chiam’s first trip ever to Zambia. Follow the beginning of a 10 day adventure in the remote river valley of the Luangwa River. Hippos kill more people annually in Africa than any ither aninal on the continent. Close calls with lions and hippos in camp. The emotions of feeding a village of 150 people. Hunting in Africa for species such as hippos can grind about complex emotions. Many people want to put an end to hunting. But for those that live with and around these wild animals they look through a very different lens than those who are from more urban cities. If there is no value to wildlife they can be viewed as a pest that local villagers look to get rid of. Or they are simply a meal ticket but due to poaching methods many animals go to waste and they are over hunted. With proven conservation through hunting methods wildlife numbers can be healthily maintained, villages can be fed, anti-poaching teams can be funded, and given modern day circumstances all the variables can be accounted for and balanced as well as possible given the challenges we all face with human/wildlife conflict. Huge thanks to ‪@NoslerInc‬ ‪@SCIFirstForHunters‬ ‪@Benelli_USA‬ ‪@SteinerOpticsUSA‬ and especially ‪@ChiamFilms‬ for the assistance in this project and all the support!

    It is spelled ImVubu not ImFubu

    • @ryanbassham
      @ryanbassham  8 месяцев назад

      I’m fairly certain that depends on the native tongue or dialect. We obviously confirmed with our team on the ground where we were and they all told us to spell it “Imfubu.” You may also go do a quick google search like we did and you will find the primary spelling is in fact the one we chose to use. Thanks. Hope you liked the episode.

      @ryanbassham no she didnt. she commented before the 10 second mark of the video.. she commented on the title alone. shes an uninformed little city slicker who enjoys burgers and hot dogs and chicken every day from animals who are basically tortured there entire life and then bred to be eaten once it hits mature size, this hippo lived a full happy life, didnt suffer in a wwarehouse with no where to move with 100000 other hippos next to it, and not 1 bit of that animal who died the best possibly death of any hippo could, went to waste at all. not 1 bit of it... the other option for this hippo was crocodile, or death by lions eating its face off while its alive laying on the ground dying cuz its too old to move..... if you dont know anything @hellokenize7019 then speak on topics you know nothing about. this hippo got the best death any wild animal could ask for and didnt have its insides ripped out by a hyena while its still alive tryna crawl away while its spleen is ripped out by 10 hyenas..... dont speak on subject ur not educated in cuz you just make ur self look dog shit.
