CONSERVATION Happy Birthday Selous! Africa’s Oldest Protected Area Celebrates The Selous Game Reserve, in southern Tanzania, is not only Africa’s largest protected area, but also its oldest. It celebrated its 120th birthday on May 7th. Although a portion of the reserve is used for photo-tourism, the majority of it is primarily for sustainable hunting tourism, making it Africa’s largest hunting area. Text and Photos: Dr. Rolf D.

Life of Frederick Courtenay Selous, D.S.O. Capt
LIFE OF FREDERICK COURTENAY SELOUS, D.S.O. CAPT. 25TH ROYAL FUSILIERS Chapter XI - XV BY J. G. MILLAIS, F.Z.S. CHAPTER XI 1906-1907 In April, 1906, Selous went all the way to Bosnia just to take the nest and eggs of the Nutcracker, and those who are not naturalists can scarcely understand such excessive enthusiasm. This little piece of wandering, however, seemed only an incentive to further restlessness, which he himself admits, and he was off again on July 12th to Western America for another hunt in the forests, this time on the South Fork of the MacMillan river. On August 5th he started from Whitehorse on the Yukon on his long canoe-journey down the river, for he wished to save the expense of taking the steamer to the mouth of the Pelly. He was accompanied by Charles Coghlan, who had been with him the previous year, and Roderick Thomas, a hard-bitten old traveller of the North- West. Selous found no difficulty in shooting the rapids on the Yukon, and had a pleasant trip in fine weather to Fort Selkirk, where he entered the Pelly on August 9th. Here he was lucky enough to kill a cow moose, and thus had an abundance of meat to take him on the long up-stream journey to the MacMillan mountains, which could only be effected by poling and towing. On August 18th he killed a lynx. At last, on August 28th, he reached a point on the South Fork of the MacMillan, where it became necessary to leave the canoe and pack provisions and outfit up to timber-line. -

Section A: Awards for plant and fungi collection and field research expeditions Kew researchers work with international partners to address key botanical issues facing the world including climate change and maintaining biodiversity. Bentham-Moxon Trust is an independent small grants scheme at Kew and in this section the Trustees have contributed funding towards twelve of Kew's projects including five in South America, two in Africa and one in Madagascar. Dr Aurélie Albert-Daviaud awarded £3,082 to part-fund a three-week field trip to Madagascar to gather evidence for the main mechanism of seed dispersal for the endemic palm Bismarckia nobilis. Palms are a keystone group in Madagascar’s unique ecosystems and this project follows on from a successful field trip in 2016, supported by Bentham-Moxon- Trust. B. nobilis occurs in large numbers over vast areas of north and west Madagascar and along with most species of palm, produces fruits adapted to animal dispersal yet hardly anything is known about the seed dispersal of Madagascan palms. Since most of the co- evolved large-body animal seed-dispersers are extinct in Madagascar, this project aims to study the possible dispersal of B. -

Biosearch 2004 Report
Biosearch Nyika: Malawi 2004 Edited by Marianne J Overton FOREWORD Peter Overton It is ten years since the Biosearch Nyika project was first mooted and agreement with the Director of National Parks and Wildlife obtained for our exploration of the remoter parts of the Nyika National Park. Over this period the teams have focused mainly on the northern part of the park where patrolling has been very limited and our gathering of intelligence has been most helpful to the Nyika management. In 2004 we undertook the most challenging expedition to date, launched from the extreme north of the park at Uledi, a four-hour drive from Thazima. The team‟s first challenge was to cross the unbridged North Rukuru River with all their supplies. They then had to climb up the western escarpment of the Mpanda ridge to a point on the Mpero River, where they set up a Base Camp, from which to launch out on their surveys. The greatest achievement was to climb both Mpanda and Kawozya and discover the remote Bleak House, now derelict but offering stunning views over Lake Malawi and far beyond. At this point they could certainly claim to be in remote country since this old site is much talked about but very rarely seen by visitors. We have yet to have clear information about who built it, when and why. Perhaps it was a holiday „retreat‟ for Livingstonia or a staging post for missionaries who conducted business on the west of the Nyika National Park and into Zambia. In many ways this expedition was the pinnacle of logistical achievement. -
Comptes Rendus Hunters
afrika focus — Volume 27, Nr. 1, 2014 — pp. 103-106 reviews – comptes rendus Hunters David Chancellor Schilt Publishing Amsterdam, 2012 At the beginning of the previous century, hunting safaris became a fashionable pursuit among members of the affluent classes, particularly in Britain and the USA. Al- though this type of hunting also occurred in West Africa, it was more popular in southern and especially eastern Africa which had greater numbers of large game. Moreover, the completion of the Ugandan railway in 1901 provided easier access to the interior high- lands of British East Africa (now Kenya) where there was an abundance of large game such as elephants, lions, rhinoceros and buffalo. It was in Kenya then, that the tourist trophy hunting industry proper began. Wealthy European and American visitors paid set- tler farmers to guide them on hunting safaris in the country. And soon after the Kenya example the tourist hunting industry would developed elsewhere in Africa. The British colonial government quickly turned big-game hunting into a source of revenue, charging the tourists and hunters licensing fees for permission to kill game animals. In 1909, a UKP 50 hunting license in British East Africa entitled its purchaser to kill 2 buffaloes, 2 hippos, 1 eland, 22 zebras, 6 oryxes, 4 waterbucks, 1 greater kudu, 4 lesser kudus, 10 topis, 26 hartebeests, 229 other antelope, 84 colobus monkeys and unlimited numbers of lions and leopards, because these last two, which killed livestock, were classified as 'vermin'. The white hunter served these paying customers as guide, teacher, and protector. Currently, South Africa has the largest hunting industry. -
