  • Country Profile Republic of Zambia Giraffe Conservation Status Report
    Country Profile Republic of Zambia Giraffe Conservation Status Report Sub-region: Southern Africa General statistics Size of country: 752,614 km² Size of protected areas / percentage protected area coverage: 30% (Sub)species Thornicroft’s giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis thornicrofti) Angolan giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis angolensis) – possible South African giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis giraffa) – possible Conservation Status IUCN Red List (IUCN 2012): Giraffa camelopardalis (as a species) – least concern G. c. thornicrofti – not assessed G. c. angolensis – not assessed G. c. giraffa – not assessed In the Republic of Zambia: The Zambia Wildlife Authority (ZAWA) is mandated under the Zambia Wildlife Act No. 12 of 1998 to manage and conserve Zambia’s wildlife and under this same act, the hunting of giraffe in Zambia is illegal (ZAWA 2015). Zambia has the second largest proportion of land under protected status in Southern Africa with approximately 225,000 km2 designated as protected areas. This equates to approximately 30% of the total land cover and of this, approximately 8% as National Parks (NPs) and 22% as Game Management Areas (GMA). The remaining protected land consists of bird sanctuaries, game ranches, forest and botanical reserves, and national heritage sites (Mwanza 2006). The Kavango Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (KAZA TFCA), is potentially the world’s largest conservation area, spanning five southern African countries; Angola, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe, centred around the Caprivi-Chobe-Victoria Falls area (KAZA 2015). Parks within Zambia that fall under KAZA are: Liuwa Plain, Kafue, Mosi-oa-Tunya and Sioma Ngwezi (Peace Parks Foundation 2013). GCF is dedicated to securing a future for all giraffe populations and (sub)species in the wild.

  • Willingness-To-Pay for Protecting Endangered Environments
    Willingness-To-Pay for Protecting Endangered Environments Table of Contents SSRR No. 31 1. INTRODUCTION 2. LITERATURE REVIEW 3. RESEARCH DESIGN 4. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS References WILLINGNESS-TO-PAY FOR PROTECTING ENDANGERED ENVIRONMENTS The Case of Nechsar National Park Zewdu Belete Yemesrach Assefa Abstract: Although national parks, wildlife sanctuaries and reserves are established to conserve biodiversity and enhance eco-tourism, most of the country’s protected areas are under serious threat. The local threats usually arise from human encroachment. To rescue these resources, appropriate conservation strategy must be put in place. This, however, requires proper valuation of the environment. Taking Netchsar National Park as a case, it was tried to measure people’s willingness-to-pay (WTP) to protect the endangered environment and identify its determinants. Using dichotomous choice contingent valuation method (CVM), it was found that the local community is willing to protect the park. The result shows that the means for the WTP are Birr 28.34 and Birr 57.07 per year per household; and its determinants are primary economic activity of the households, dependency ratio and distance from the park. The study suggests that the park management should involve the local community in its conservation endeavour and share the benefits with them. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background Environmental degradation may jeopardize economic development of the world. Rapid population growth, urbanization, increased production and consumption, intensification of agriculture and acceleration of landscape transformation have put serious pressure on the environment. This, inter alia, brings environmental protection into the development agenda. According to World Development Report (World Bank 1992), environmental damage can hamper development in two ways.

Box 32379, Lusaka, Zambia; 3Department of Clinical Studies, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Zambia, P.O. Box 32379, Lusaka, Zambia; 4Kavango Transfrontier Wild Animal, Gaborone, Botswana Abstract: Babesia spp. were detected from 4 asymptomatic pukus captured on a game ranch in central Zambia in Octo- ber 2008. Blood smears were examined in 4 species of aymptomatic free-ranging antelopes, namely the puku (Kobus vor danii), reedbuck (Redunca arundinum), bushbuck (Tragelaphus sylvaticus), and kudu (Tragelaphus strepsiceros), and showed the presence of Babesia parasites only in the puku. In the puku, the prevalence of babesiosis was estimated at 33.3% (n=12), while the overall prevalence in all examined animals was 8.5% (n=47). The parasites showed morphologi- cal characteristics of paired ring-like stages with the length varying between 1.61 µm and 3.02 µm (mean=2.12 µm, n= 27; SD=0.76 µm). Both the infected and non-infected pukus showed good body condition scores (BCS), while the domi- nant tick species detected from all animals were Rhipicephalus appendiculatus, Rhipicephalus spp., and Boophilus spp.

  • Ethiopia Omo Valley Extension Birding & Tribal Cultures 27Th January to 3Rd February 2022 (8 Days)
    Ethiopia Omo Valley Extension Birding & Tribal Cultures 27th January to 3rd February 2022 (8 days) Mursi tribeswomen by Adam Riley This exciting extension will take us to one of the wildest and most ethnically diverse places on Earth – the South Omo Valley. Combining a wonderful mix of culture and birding, we will have the rare opportunity to interact with several tribal communities who still live almost exactly as they did hundreds of years ago. This harsh and inhospitable part of south-western Ethiopia harbours over a dozen distinctly different tribes, each with its own unique language, clothing, hairstyles and bodily ornamentation. Our tour will take us through the very heart of this vast and varied cultural melting pot, and promises to make an exciting and memorable end to our Ethiopia birding experience! RBL Ethiopia - Omo Valley Extension Itinerary 2 THE TOUR AT A GLANCE… THE ITINERARY Day 1 Addis Ababa Day 2 Addis Ababa, flight to Arba Minch Day 3 Arba Minch, drive to Turmi Day 4 Turmi area Day 5 Turmi, drive to Jinka via Dimeka Market Day 6 Jinka area Day 7 Jinka, drive to Arba Minch Day 8 Arba Minch, drive to Addis Ababa and depart TOUR ROUTE MAP… RBL Ethiopia - Omo Valley Extension Itinerary 3 THE TOUR IN DETAIL… Day 1: Addis Ababa. Today is essentially a travel/arrival day. For those doing the main Ethiopia tour, we will be arriving in Addis Ababa from Debre Berhan, while those only participating in this Omo Valley Extension will arrive at Addis Ababa’s Bole International Airport. Founded in 1886 by Emperor Menelik II, Addis Ababa is Ethiopia’s capital and is one of the largest cities in Africa, with a population well over 5 million.

  • Appendix 1 Vernacular Names
    Appendix 1 Vernacular Names The vernacular names listed below have been collected from the literature. Few have phonetic spellings. Spelling is not helped by the difficulties of transcribing unwritten languages into European syllables and Roman script. Some languages have several names for the same species. Further complications arise from the various dialects and corruptions within a language, and use of names borrowed from other languages. Where the people are bilingual the person recording the name may fail to check which language it comes from. For example, in northern Sahel where Arabic is the lingua franca, the recorded names, supposedly Arabic, include a number from local languages. Sometimes the same name may be used for several species. For example, kiri is the Susu name for both Adansonia digitata and Drypetes afzelii. There is nothing unusual about such complications. For example, Grigson (1955) cites 52 English synonyms for the common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) in the British Isles, and also mentions several examples of the same vernacular name applying to different species. Even Theophrastus in c. 300 BC complained that there were three plants called strykhnos, which were edible, soporific or hallucinogenic (Hort 1916). Languages and history are linked and it is hoped that understanding how lan- guages spread will lead to the discovery of the historical origins of some of the vernacular names for the baobab. The classification followed here is that of Gordon (2005) updated and edited by Blench (2005, personal communication). Alternative family names are shown in square brackets, dialects in parenthesis. Superscript Arabic numbers refer to references to the vernacular names; Roman numbers refer to further information in Section 4.

  • Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia Giraffe Conservation Status Report July 2020
    Country Profile Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia Giraffe Conservation Status Report July 2020 General statistics Size of country: 1,127,127 km² Size of protected areas / percentage protected area coverage: 18.5% Species and subspecies In 2016 the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) completed the first detailed assessment of the conservation status of giraffe, revealing that their numbers are in peril. This was further emphasised when the majority of the IUCN recognised subspecies where assessed in 2018 – some as Critically Endangered. While this update further confirms the real threat to one of Africa’s most charismatic megafauna, it also highlights a rather confusing aspect of giraffe conservation: how many species/subspecies of giraffe are there? The IUCN currently recognises one species (Giraffa camelopardalis) and nine subspecies of giraffe (Muller et al. 2016) historically based on outdated assessments of their morphological features and geographic ranges. The subspecies are thus divided: Angolan giraffe (G. c. angolensis), Kordofan giraffe (G. c. antiquorum), Masai giraffe (G. c. tippleskirchi), Nubian giraffe (G. c. camelopardalis), reticulated giraffe (G. c. reticulata), Rothschild’s giraffe (G. c. rothschildi), South African giraffe (G. c. giraffa), Thornicroft’s giraffe (G. c. thornicrofti) and West African giraffe (G. c. peralta). However, over the past decade GCF together with their partner Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre (BiK-F) have performed the first-ever comprehensive DNA sampling and analysis (genomic, nuclear and mitochondrial) from all major natural populations of giraffe throughout their range in Africa. As a result, an update to the traditional taxonomy now exists. This study revealed that there are four distinct species of giraffe and likely five subspecies (Fennessy et al.
