The results of the two ivory auctions held respectively in May and 30 November were quite satisfactory, and the average price per lb. realised was approxi­ 34 mately Shs. 6 at the former and Shs. 6/55 cents at the latter. Although in the course of the year there has been no spectacular rise in the price of ivory, there was a steady progressive improvement in the prices of soft bull 37 ivory at the quarterly 3,uctions held in London with tbe exception of the last one 39 of the year (in October) when there was a slight decline, which, however, did not 40 affect the local market as revealed by the November average. Cow ivory has been in better demand, and bas found a steadily ritling market, while the prices realised in Mombasa at the November auction showed a marked advance and helped considerably in raising the all-round average to neu.rly Shs. 7 per lb. 43 The year closed with local prices for bull tusks not only firm at Shs. 7 per lb. 44 44 but with a decided tendency to rise, and a good demand for bull ivory of 30 to 40 Ills. 44 weight. Larger tusks were in less demand, and the prices lower. 3. Game and special licences, and Governor's permits were issued:- 1935. 1934.

The fee for the Third Elephant is tho same, ,no, as that for the Second Elephant under the previous arnwgement. Similarly tho Native Special Licence for Two Elephants is £5 (the fee for one previously), and. for a third, £10. ; 4. 'rhe revenue from the sale of game and elephant licences shows an appreciable and welcome increase (£64~) 16s.), and if it had been possible to introduce earlier than mid-October the legislation altering the Special Elephant Licence materially in favour of the licence-holder, the improvement doubtless would have been greater. There was a definite increase over the normal monthly average in the value of licences taken out dnring the last two months of the year, and it is anticipated that in 1936 revenue from licences will exceed £3,000, and it is hoped be nearer £3,000. Many sportsmen only ta,ke out the (Full) Game Licence to enable them to obtain Special Elephant Licences, and a considemble increase is expected in the demand for Full IJicences, of which 1935 issues exceed those of 1934 by twelve. Bird Licences are as popular as ever. 5.

The tot2J of 48,856 Ibs., or nearly 22 tons of ivory sold, is a few tons in excess of the quantity disposed of in 1934. These £gures are unlikely to appeal to the bigoted protectionist, but anyone who takes the trouble to study carefully the elephant control section of this Report will realise that our organised methods at present barely control the situ3,tion, and jf we n,re to afford the inhabitants of this fertile bnd the measure of protection which is their due, an annual slaughter of elephants on a large scale is not only necessary but imperative. It is undoubtedly an unpalatable pill for many, though it has to be swallowed. There is more on this subject in otber parts of this Heport. 7. Critics wbo delight to shut tileir eyes to the seriousness of the local situation and deliberately ignore tbat there 3,re such important factors as man and his crops, are, from the recesses .of their comfortable armchairs accustomed to level the accusation that our metbods a.re directly influenced by revenue-making considerations.

W. Nsubuga1,2*, Edith N. Namutebi3, Masoud Nsubuga-Ssenfuma2 1Department of Geography, Geoinformatics and Meteorology, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, South Africa 2National Environmental Consult Ltd., Kampala, Uganda 3Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Kampala, Uganda Email: *[email protected] Received 1 August 2014; revised 26 August 2014; accepted 18 September 2014 Copyright © 2014 by authors and Scientific Research Publishing Inc. This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Water resources of a country constitute one of its vital assets that significantly contribute to the socio-economic development and poverty eradication. However, this resource is unevenly distri- buted in both time and space. The major source of water for these resources is direct rainfall, which is recently experiencing variability that threatens the distribution of resources and water availability in Uganda. The annual rainfall received in Uganda varies from 500 mm to 2800 mm, with an average of 1180 mm received in two main seasons. The spatial distribution of rainfall has resulted into a network of great rivers and lakes that possess big potential for development. These resources are being developed and depleted at a fast rate, a situation that requires assessment to establish present status of water resources in the country. The paper reviews the characteristics, availability, demand and importance of present day water resources in Uganda as well as describ- ing the various issues, challenges and management of water resources of the country.

    SET III Living Together in East Africa. Major Resources of East Africa. Meaning of resources/Examples. A resource is a feature in the environment that man uses to satisfy their /his needs. Types of natural resources. Renewable resources. Renewable resources are resources that can be replaced naturally once they are over- exploited. Non-renewable resources are resources that cannot be replace naturally once they are over-used or exhausted. Examples of renewable resources. • Plants • Animals • Water bodies • Land • Climate /rainfall/sunshine Examples of non-renewable resources • Minerals • Fossils fuel i.e. coal, oil, natural, gas Land • Land is the part of the earth that is not covered by water • Land supports most resources in the environment. 1 Importance of land • Land provides space for building houses / settlement. • Land is where crops are grown. • Land provides space for burying the dead. • Land provides space for grazing animals. • Minerals are mined from land. Problems facing land. • Dumping of garbage and toxic materials on land. • Over-cultivation • Deforestation • Land fragmentation • Soil erosion Possible solutions to some of the above problems. • Garbage should be used for other purposes like generation of biogas. • People should be encouraged to grow fodder crops for animals. • People should be encouraged to use manure and fertilizer. • Farmers should terrace their land to control soil erosion. • Educate the people about the benefits of re-afforestation. Note: There are things that people make to meet their needs and they are called human made resources. Examples include; - Electricity - Clothes - Shoes - Mobile phones - Books - Buildings - Vehicles - Drugs - Roads 2 Activity 1.

    MGNP General Management Plan 2014-2024 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) prepared this General Management Plan with total funding from Uganda Wildlife Authority. Consultations were held with all relevant stakeholders both at Resource use level, Subcounty level, District level and at National Level. Furthermore an analysis of stakeholders was done which gave guidance on the consultations made. Uganda Wildlife Authority highly acknowledges the Local Communities and the entire Kisoro district leadership, who contributed to the proposals during the Planning process. Prepared by: Uganda Wildlife Authority Input from: BMCA field staff, Senior UWA staff and stakeholders Guidance from: Uganda Wildlife Authority Top Management staff Drafted by: The Planning team Edited by: Edgar Buhanga and Richard Kapere as a secretariat of the planning team i MGNP General Management Plan 2014-2024 FOREWORD Mgahinga Gorilla National Park (33.7 km2) is contiguous with Parc National des Virunga (240 km2) in the DRC, and Parc National des Volcans (160 km2) in Rwanda, all forming the proposed transbound- ary PA known as the Virunga Conservation Area covering an area of 434 km2. The park includes three of the Virunga volcanoes - Mt Muhabura (4,127 m), Mt Gahinga (3,474 m) from which the park derives its name, and Mt Sabinyo (3,645 m). This park forms part of the home of the world’s Moun- tain Gorilla population and the Golden Monkey species. This document presents a ten-year management plan for Mgahinga Gorilla National Park (MGNP). Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) is committed to the continued sustainable management of the Park ecosystem. This can only be achieved through proper long term planning which government has already identified and provided for in the Uganda Wildlife Act (Cap 200).
