Wallace and *Alison J. Leslie Department of Conservation Ecology and Entomology, Faculty of AgriSciences, University of Stellenbosch, Private Bag X1, Matieland 7602, South Africa [email protected] and *[email protected] Abstract: The stomachs of 286 crocodiles (17 cm to 166 cm snout to vent length) were lavaged over a two year period. Crocodylus niloticus has a similar ontogenetic shift in diet to that of other crocodilians. Yearlings primarily predated primarily on aquatic insecta and arachnida, as crocodile size increased (juvenile) the diet became more diverse including crustacea, amphibia and fish. The largest size class (sub-adult) consumed primarily fish. Yearlings fed consistently throughout the year, however a higher proportion of empty stomachs occurred within the juvenile and sub-adult size classes during the winter months. A captive experiment with wild caught crocodiles (0.7 kg – 20 kg) indicated a decrease in satiation rate (maximum mass of food eaten as a percentage of crocodile body mass) from 11.3 % to 6.5 % with an increase in crocodile size. The percentage of stomach stone mass to crocodile body mass increased with crocodile size. Seven species of nematodes were found within the stomachs, four of which represent new geographic records. ----- Nesting Ecology Of The Nile Crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus) In The Okavango Delta, Botswana. 1Alison J. Leslie, S.L. Bourquin and V. Shacks Department of Conservation Ecology, P/Bag X1, University of Stellenbosch, South Africa, 7600.1([email protected]) Abstract : The Nile crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus) population of the Okavango Delta has undergone three major periods of human-induced decline in the past century. Combined, these periods have lead to an estimated 50% reduction in the breeding population of the Okavango Nile crocodile. Although the possibility of population recruitment from two neighboring countries, namely Angola and Namibia, may exist, both countries are currently experiencing a period of major agricultural and economic development. This situation is likely to lead to an increase in crocodile- human conflict and further reduce the likelihood of recruitment into the Okavango Delta from further upstream. Therefore, knowledge concerning the breeding ecology of the Okavango Nile crocodile population and the impact of human disturbance is of critical importance for the long-term survival of this population. 82 This paper presents data collected over three consecutive nesting seasons in the “panhandle” region of the Okavango Delta, the primary breeding area for this population of crocodiles. Data was collected on nest location, hatching success and other physical nest site parameters. Results indicate that 50-80% of previous nesting sites are no longer in use. Additionally, nest sites are being selected on the basis of minimal human disturbance, rather than on optimal nesting parameters. Through the use of GIS techniques we propose a nesting sanctuary for Nile crocodiles in the Okavango Delta, highlighting the importance of such an area for the long-term survival of the population. ----- The Reproductive Cycle Of The Nile Crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus) In The Okavango Delta, Botswana. Audrey S. Detoeuf-Boulade1, Alison J. Leslie 2 and Etienne Hurter3 Stellenbosch University, Private bag X1, Matieland 7602, South Africa ([email protected]; [email protected]; 3 [email protected] ) Abstract: Blood samples were collected from wild Nile crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus) between January 2002 and December 2005 in the Okavango Delta, Botswana. Samples were analyzed for seasonal variations in Estradiol (E2), Progesterone (P), vitellogenin (VTG) and testosterone (T) concentrations in females and testosterone concentrations in males. In addition, plasma triacylglycerol (TAG), phospholipids (PL) and cholesterol (CHO) were measured. VTG was detected in females with a total length (TL) = 236 cm. In males, spermatozoa were detected at the end of June (total length = 196cm) when T starts rising and peaks in Jul-Aug (15.9 ng/ml) coinciding with courting and mating behavior. CHO and PL fluctuation followed the same seasonal pattern as T, but TAG peaked later in Sep-Oct. In adult females, E concentration was highest in July-August (4.3 ng/ml) as well as VTG concentration (1.5 µg/ml) coinciding with vitellogenesis while testosterone started rising to reach its peak in nov-dec (18 ng/ml). Progesterone would rise steadily until nov-dec were it reached its maximum (45 ng/ml) and then dropped abruptly in January when nests started hatching. The seasonal pattern in TAG concentration mirrored that of estradiol but there was no relations between estradiol patterns and CHO or PL. CHO and PL did not fluctuate significantly throughout the year. ----- 83 Human-Crocodile Conflict (Nile Crocodile: Crocodylus niloticus) In The Okavango Delta, Botswana. 1Georgina D. Thomas and 2Alison J. Leslie Department of Conservation Ecology, University of Stellenbosch, South Africa 1 [email protected] and 2 [email protected] Abstract: Human-Crocodile Conflict (HCC) is becoming an increasing social and conservation problem in most African countries, as many predator species are under threat due to conflict situations where predation of livestock and humans is occurring. The extent and severity of HCC in the Okavango Delta, Botswana, was investigated through conducting questionnaires with the aid of translators in 35 villages surrounding this unique inland delta (N=483). Perceptions towards crocodiles, the degree of utilization of river resources and traditional beliefs of the local people were also investigated. A high incidence of attacks was expected to occur where human and livestock populations were high, with an increasing number of attacks over recent years. Fifty percent of the people fear crocodiles and remarked that the brain is poisonous when consumed. Most human attacks occurred when people were fishing, swimming and collecting water. Total human attacks (N=125) were positively correlated with human population (p<0.01, r2=0.40) and total livestock attacks (p<0.01; r2=0.32) [N=3405, average of 3.5 livestock attacked per interviewee]. The rate of attack on humans is increasing linearly

  • Chapter 3: Current Situation of the Water Reservoir and Categorization
    Chapter 3: Current situation of the water reservoir and categorization 3.1 Situation of the construction 3.1.1 First phase According to the document titled "Repertories of the main dams and their characteristics in Niger: September 2004" published by the Direction of Management and Rural Agricultural Equipment of the Ministry of Agricultural Development, during the first phase (2001-2002) of the Special Program of the President of the Republic, the construction of 54 water reservoirs was planned in the zone of this study. For one of these reservoirs, that of Angoual Denia, works do not yet start, although an advance on this work was given to the contractor. On the other hand, the reservoir of Aoka whose construction was planned 1 km upstream the water reservoir of Aboka changed destination during execution, and is used as dam to prevent from sand accumulation in the reservoir of Aboka, this makes it not possible to fulfill the functions of a water reservoir. In addition, a new additional reservoir, that of Edouk, was built. The reservoir of Guidan Bado remains always unfinished and the contract with the profit service provider for its construction was terminated to be given to another more able to complete it. Thus, today (August 2009), among 55 water reservoirs object of the first phase there existed in the area of this study 52 built reservoirs, and 1 reservoir almost completed although partially unfinished, making a total of 53 reservoirs.

Indeed, the changes in temperature and precipita- tions already operating and that should become more marked will have serious effects on agricultural production and water resources in this part of Africa in the near future. One of the keys to meeting this new challenge is the adaptation of rural societies to climate risks. To gain better knowledge of the potential, processes and barriers, this book analyses recent and ongoing trends in the climate and the environment and examines how rural societies perceive and integrate them: what are the impacts of these changes, what vulnerabilities are there but also what new opportunities do they bring? How do the populations adapt and what innovations do they implement—while the climate- induced effects interact with the social, political, economic and technical changes that are in motion in Africa? By associating French and African scientists (climatologists, IRD agronomists, hydrologists, ecologists, demographers, geogra- 44, bd de Dunkerque phers, anthropologists, sociologists and others) in a multidisci- 13572 Marseille cedex 02 plinary approach, the book makes a valuable contribution to Rural societies in the face of climatic [email protected] better anticipation of climatic risks and the evaluation of African www.editions.ird.fr societies to stand up to them.

  • NIGER Niger Only Seems to Make the News for Bad
    © Lonely Planet 442 Niger Niger only seems to make the news for bad reasons: its recent coup, the Tuareg Rebellion, famine and – incredibly, as revealed in a trial in 2008 – its ongoing slavery problem. But if you make the effort to visit this desert republic, you’ll find a warm and generous Muslim population and some superb tout-free West African travel through ancient caravan cities at the edge of the Sahara. Sadly, at the time of writing the country’s greatest attractions, the Ténéré Desert and the Aïr Mountains in the north remained closed to travellers due to the Tuareg Rebellion. However, Libyan-brokered ceasefire talks between the Niger Movement for Justice (MNJ) and the government brought an end to the conflict, on paper at least, in 2009. The situation on the ground remains unstable, however, and you should always check the latest information before heading to the country’s north. Despite the closure of much of the county’s north, at the time of writing the fascinating trans-Saharan trade-route town of Agadez was still accessible, as well as a bevy of attractions in the peaceful south: the ancient sultanate of Zinder, the fantastic W National Park, West Africa’s last herd of wild giraffe at Kouré and the impossibly romantic Sunday market of Ayorou. Add to this the laid-back but cosmopolitan capital of Niamey and a trip down the mighty Niger River in a dugout pirogue, and you’ve got yourself a West African adventure NIGER NIGER that can cheerfully rival any other in this book.
