  • Business and the Visit of the Secretary of State for Foreign Trade from France, Charles De Chambrun (1966)
    THE “RENAULT” BUSINESS AND THE VISIT OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR FOREIGN TRADE FROM FRANCE, CHARLES DE CHAMBRUN (1966) Antoaneta Laura SAVA Abstract: Because the representatives of the “Renault” and “Volkswagen” companies did not show any interest, in the period 1973–1976, for a collaboration in the direction expected by the authorities from Bucharest, Nicolae Ceauşescu agreed on the prime minister Manea Mănescu signing a contract and several industrial and financial collaboration agreements, with the purpose of producing, at Craiova, under French licence, the models “Citroën Visa Spécial” and “Citroën Visa Club” (called in Romania, “Oltcit Special” and “Oltcit Club”). Meanwhile, the collaboration of Romania with “Renault” National Administration continued according to the intentions expressed by the prime minister Raymond Barre and Manea Mănescu in Paris (the 17th of December 1976), and the Romanian-French agreement concluded in the summer of 1978 (Bucharest, the 12th of June 1978), having the purpose to certify the continuation of “Dacia 1300” production, along with certain subsets, electric engines, dashboard instruments and components for the machines used in the car industry from Romania. Keywords: fields, authority, car manufacturing industry, Renault company, development. In the last decade, were written, both in Romania and abroad, several studies and analyses that refer to the success registered by “Renault” French company, on addressing “Dacia Logan”, “Dacia MCV”, “Dacia Sandero” and “Dacia Duster” car makes. First produced at the Colibaşi plant, they had, since the beginning, a low selling price, as compared to other makes of renowned companies. Due to a special interest manifested for understanding the manner in which “Dacia” products reached the commercial success during the period 2004–2014, we are to present, further on, the beginning of the cooperation between the authorities from Romania and the “Renault” company.

  • Aerial Surveys of Wildlife and Human Activity Across the Bouba N'djida
    Aerial Surveys of Wildlife and Human Activity Across the Bouba N’djida - Sena Oura - Benoue - Faro Landscape Northern Cameroon and Southwestern Chad April - May 2015 Paul Elkan, Roger Fotso, Chris Hamley, Soqui Mendiguetti, Paul Bour, Vailia Nguertou Alexandre, Iyah Ndjidda Emmanuel, Mbamba Jean Paul, Emmanuel Vounserbo, Etienne Bemadjim, Hensel Fopa Kueteyem and Kenmoe Georges Aime Wildlife Conservation Society Ministry of Forests and Wildlife (MINFOF) L'Ecole de Faune de Garoua Funded by the Great Elephant Census Paul G. Allen Foundation and WCS SUMMARY The Bouba N’djida - Sena Oura - Benoue - Faro Landscape is located in north Cameroon and extends into southwest Chad. It consists of Bouba N’djida, Sena Oura, Benoue and Faro National Parks, in addition to 25 safari hunting zones. Along with Zakouma NP in Chad and Waza NP in the Far North of Cameroon, the landscape represents one of the most important areas for savanna elephant conservation remaining in Central Africa. Aerial wildlife surveys in the landscape were first undertaken in 1977 by Van Lavieren and Esser (1979) focusing only on Bouba N’djida NP. They documented a population of 232 elephants in the park. After a long period with no systematic aerial surveys across the area, Omondi et al (2008) produced a minimum count of 525 elephants for the entire landscape. This included 450 that were counted in Bouba N’djida NP and its adjacent safari hunting zones. The survey also documented a high richness and abundance of other large mammals in the Bouba N’djida NP area, and to the southeast of Faro NP. In the period since 2010, a number of large-scale elephant poaching incidents have taken place in Bouba N’djida NP.

  • August Von Spiess - Under the Sign of the Destiny
    Muzeul Olteniei Craiova. Oltenia. Studii şi comunicări. Ştiinţele Naturii. Tom. 34, No. 2/2018 ISSN 1454-6914 AUGUST VON SPIESS - UNDER THE SIGN OF THE DESTINY ANTONIE Iuliana Abstract. August von Spiess was born on the 6th of August 1864. He spent his childhood on his mother’s estate in the Fiume region, Poland. The mother inspired him with the first feelings of love for nature. He attended junior school in several garrisons, following, as all his family, his father’s displacements as an active military officer. Irrespective of the place, the child August preferred to wander in nature, instead of acquiring school knowledge. At the age of eleven he was enrolled in the Military School in Saint Poelten. After leaving the school, he graduated the Theresianum Military Academy in Vienna and was given the rank of second lieutenant. A schoolmate described Transylvania to him as a dream world in terms of relief and abundance of fauna. From this moment on, he did his best to come to Transylvania. He succeeded in being appointed to a regiment in Orastie and then in Sibiu. Here he made it a duty to improve himself in the art of hunting. After the First World War, under favourable circumstances, he was named by the Romanian king Ferdinand I, on the first of July 1921, in the position of manager of the royal hunting. In this position he developed a fruitful activity to organize royal hunting parties, to protect the fauna and also to build roads, huts, shelters and refuges. He proved his literary talent by writing articles inspired by the world of cynegetics and also writing specialized works, which are authentic monographs of the most known hunting fields.

  • GREVY's ZEBRA Equus Grevyi Swahili Name
    Porini Camps Mammal Guide By Rustom Framjee Preface This mammal guide provides some interesting facts about the mammals that are seen by guests staying at Porini Camps. In addition, there are many species of birds and reptiles which are listed separately from this guide. Many visitors are surprised at the wealth of wildlife and how close you can get to the animals without disturbing them. Because the camps operate on a low tourist density basis (one tent per 700 acres) the wildlife is not ‘crowded’ by many vehicles and you can see them in a natural state - hunting, socialising, playing, giving birth and fighting to defend their territories. Some are more difficult to see than others, and some can only be seen when you go on a night drive. All Porini camps are unfenced and located in game rich areas and you will see much wildlife even in and around the camps. The Maasai guides who accompany you on all game drives and walks are very well trained and qualified professional guides. They are passionate and enthusiastic about their land and its wildlife and really want to show you as much as they can. They have a wealth of knowledge and you are encouraged to ask them more about what you see. They know many of the animals individually and can tell you stories about them. If you are particularly interested in something, let them know and they will try to help you see it. While some facts and figures are from some of the references listed, the bulk of information in this guide has come from the knowledge of guides and camp staff.

    Researches Reviews of the Department of Geography, Tourism and Hotel Management 42/2013. Review article UDC 338.48:639(437+439) COMPARATIVE REVIEW OF HUNTING TOURISM IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC AND HUNGARY Zoran RistićI, Sajko GabrielaII, Karolina SimatIII, Milosava MatejevićI Received: 22.09.2013. | Accepted: 30.11.2013. Abstract: Hunting tourism is one of the most important tourism product in Hungary and the CzechRepublic. Hunting in the CzechRepublic and Hungary has very long tradi- tion dating from the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Today, hunting is based on the sustaina- ble use of wildlife. Diverse natural and environmental resources in the area of these coun- tries made hunting areas very interesting for hunting tourists from all over the world. The aim of this paper is to show and compare the basic indicators of hunting tourism in these countries, based on the collected data. Descriptive statistics and comparative analysis method were used for analysis of result. Hunting in the Czech Republic and Hungary is the most organised in whole Europe, but, as many other developed countries, Czech Republic and Hungary are faced with the problem of reduced number of certain game species. Key words: hunting tourism, Czech Republic, Hungary INTRODUCTION More and more authors consider hunting tourism as an element of active, eco, na- ture or green tourism (Higginbottom, 2004). All classifications are based on the same idea: hunting tourism is a form of tourism related to nature, which is the main mo- tivation for observation and / or hunting of game. Hunting is an independent mar- ket product(SzaboиLengyel, 2012).According to the 2005th, which was conducted by the Federation of Associations for Hunting and Conservation of the European Union - FACE, the European Union and its 25 Member States counted about 6.4 million hunters (FACE, 2005).
