  • The African Bush Elephant Can Grow up to 13 Ft Tall and Weigh Almost 6 Tonnes
    Introduction: Have you ever wondered what the largest land mammal is? The African bush elephant can grow up to 13 ft tall and weigh almost 6 tonnes. That is around the same weight as 6 small cars! If you would like to find out more about this magnificent creature, then read on! A labelled diagram of an African Elephant. Main Features: Most people think the elephant is just one species of animal. In fact, there are 3 species of elephant; the African bush elephant, the African forest elephant, and the Asian elephant. All elephants have large ears in order to help release excess body heat into the air. Additionally, their trunk is used for a variety of purposes. It helps elephants to breathe, smell, hold things, touch and produce the famous elephant trumpeting! Despite elephants being generally calm and peaceful, elephants can be extremely dangerous. Their tusks, which are made of ivory, are used to dig, move branches, and fight. Diet: Although they are an enormous animal, elephants are herbivores. Their main diet includes tree bark, flowers, leaves, wild fruits and twigs. Due to their size, adult elephants must consume around 150-170kg of food every day! Current Status: Unfortunately, some people poach elephants in order to take their tusks, which are made from a precious material called ivory. The ivory is then used to produce ornaments, jewellery, or other expensive objects. Elephant poaching was banned worldwide in 1990, but elephants are still being hunted down ille- gally. According to the WWF, around 55 African elephants are killed for their tusks every day.

    ELEPHANT PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Raymond Carver | 128 pages | 05 Jul 2011 | Vintage Publishing | 9780099530350 | English | London, United Kingdom Elephant - Wikipedia The seeds are typically dispersed in large amounts over great distances. This ecological niche cannot be filled by the next largest herbivore, the tapir. At Murchison Falls National Park in Uganda, the overabundance of elephants has threatened several species of small birds that depend on woodlands. Their weight can compact the soil, which causes the rain to run off , leading to erosion. Elephants typically coexist peacefully with other herbivores, which will usually stay out of their way. Some aggressive interactions between elephants and rhinoceros have been recorded. At Aberdare National Park , Kenya, a rhino attacked an elephant calf and was killed by the other elephants in the group. This is due to lower predation pressures that would otherwise kill off many of the individuals with significant parasite loads. Female elephants spend their entire lives in tight-knit matrilineal family groups, some of which are made up of more than ten members, including three mothers and their dependent offspring, and are led by the matriarch which is often the eldest female. The social circle of the female elephant does not necessarily end with the small family unit. In the case of elephants in Amboseli National Park , Kenya, a female's life involves interaction with other families, clans, and subpopulations. Families may associate and bond with each other, forming what are known as bond groups which typically made of two family groups. During the dry season, elephant families may cluster together and form another level of social organisation known as the clan.

  • Gorongosa NP, 2019
    Gorongosa NP, Mozambique Tom Clode, 8th - 13th September 2019 An ambitious relocation project had drawn my attention to Gorongosa NP in Mozambique in 2018, as a pack of wild dogs was moved from Kwa-Zulu Natal in South Africa to their new home. Gorongosa itself has plenty to offer besides the dogs (known locally as “Mabecos”) with a growing population of lions and elephants, reintroduced buffalo, zebra and wildebeest, and much more. The variety of game was greatly reduced by the Mozambican Civil War, and animals are still understandably wary around vehicles – cheetah were unsuccessfully reintroduced, leopard are vanishingly rare and the niche vacated by many antelope species has been filled by vast quantities of waterbuck. Having said this, the parks itself is stunning, consisting of a variety of landscapes and the wildlife is rewarding if you put the hours in. Mozambique is increasingly accessible, with Gorongosa accessed from either Beira or Chimoio most easily. I flew into Beira – Ethiopian Airlines fly here via Blantyre, but be aware that my flights were cancelled just two weeks before I was due to leave. I was forced to travel via Johannesburg with Virgin Atlantic and SA Airlink instead. Beira is a nice enough city, although still reeling from the effects of Cyclone Idai when I visited. Transfers, though not cheap, can be arranged from either Beira or Chimoio with the Montebelo hotel in Gorongosa. I can’t say enough nice things about the Montebelo Gorongosa resort. It certainly detracts from the feeling of being in the wild but makes up for it with comfortable accommodation, good food, friendly service and excellent amenities.

  • The Bushmeat Crisis : Fact Sheet
    Fact Sheet The Bushmeat Crisis The following statistics have been taken from the report Conservation & Use of Wildlife‐Based Resources: the Bushmeat Crisis (Nasi et al). Original sources can be found in this report. Wildlife & Ecological Function Although every organism contributes to ecosystem processes, the nature and magnitude of individual species contributions vary considerably. Therefore activities, such as hunting, have the potential to not only impact targeted species but the ecosystem more broadly. Keystone species: those species whose loss has a disproportionate impact on the community when compared to the loss of other species. For example, large cats’ extirpation triggers an uncontrolled growth of the prey population which in turn dramatically increases browsing or grazing intensity to the point where forest regeneration can be totally prevented; Elephants have a tremendous role in modifying vegetation structure and composition through their feeding habits (differential herbivory, seed dispersal) and movements in the forest (killing a large number of small trees). Wildlife – Economics, Nutrition & Culture Proteins obtained from hunting wild animals are crucial for the survival of many forest‐ dependent people of the Congo Basin. In Gabon, the annual bushmeat trade has been valued at US$25 million (€18.5 million). In West and Central Africa, estimates of the value of the bushmeat trade range from US$42 to US$205 million (€31‐151 million) per year. Researchers estimate that the current harvest of bushmeat in Central Africa amounts to more than 1 million tonnes annually—the equivalent of almost four million head of cattle The value of wild meat harvested in the Amazon basin exceeds US$ 175 million per year.
