Arusha National Park is a small but popular park with great birding and extinct volcanoes covered in thick forest. Tarangire National Park is famous for the many baobab trees and high elephant populations. Lake Manyara National Park is a comparatively compact area nestled beneath the cliffs of the Great Rift Valley with spring-fed forests, thick acacia bush, and a soda lake, which, at times, holds a large variety of waterbirds including flamingos, ibises, storks, and ducks. Ngorongoro is the largest unbroken volcanic caldera in the world, but also famous for the grasslands and lakes of the crater floor, where we may find the endangered Black Rhinoceros. The main tour ends in the Serengeti. A vast unspoiled, rolling savannah and woodlands, which hosts the most spectacular concentration of animals during migration and calving. Over one million Blue Wildebeests (along with hundreds of thousands of Thomson’s Gazelles and Common Zebras can be found in the huge park during February- March. A moderately paced tour with good-to-excellent accommodations (in lodges as well as tents).

  • Community-Based Conservation in Tanzania
    Partitioned Nature, Privileged Knowledge: Community-based Conservation in Tanzania Mara Goldman ABSTRACT Community Based Conservation (CBC) has become the catch-all solution to the social and ecological problems plaguing traditional top-down, protection- ist conservation approaches. CBC has been particularly popular throughout Africa as a way to gain local support for wildlife conservation measures that have previously excluded local people and their development needs. This article shows that, despite the rhetoric of devolution and participation asso- ciated with new CBC models, conservation planning in Tanzania remains a top-down endeavour, with communities and their specialized socio-ecological knowledge delegated to the margins. In addition to the difficulties associated with the transfer of power from state to community hands, CBC also poses complex challenges to the culture or institution of conservation. Using the example of the Tarangire-Manyara ecosystem, the author shows how local knowledge and the complexities of ecological processes challenge the conven- tional zone-based conservation models, and argues that the insights of local Maasai knowledge claims could better reflect the ecological and social goals of the new CBC rhetoric. INTRODUCTION Community Based Conservation (CBC) has become the recognized trade- mark of what many claim is a ‘new conservation’ unfolding across Africa (Hulme and Murphree, 1999; cf. Hulme and Murphree, 2001). In response to the recognized failure of top-down approaches to development and eco- logical limits of protectionist (‘fortress’) conservation, ‘the community’ has become the catch-all solution for effective conservation and development (McNaughton, 1989; McNeely, 1995; Western and Wright, 1994). CBC shifts the focus of conservation from nature as protected through exclusive state control, to nature as managed through inclusive, participatory, com- munity-based endeavours.

  • THEGREATMIGRATION~ February 7-20, 2018 (14 Days)
    16 participantsLimited to tanzania safari The GreaT MiGraTion ~ February 7-20, 2018 (14 days) with Drs. Corrie Moreau and David Willard © Joseph Paszczyk “The safari brought us close to the untamed Africa where humanity evolved.” Dear Members and Friends, I invite you to join The Field Museum on our classic Tanzania Safari. Field scientists explore countries around the world, but we return to Tanzania nearly every year. Journeying through the impressive wildlife, beauty, and diversity in this African terrain highlights what is best about science at the Museum – the privilege of exploring and learning from the world around us. We schedule our visit to the Serengeti to experience one of the most dramatic wildlife spectacles on Earth – the Great Wildebeest Migration. Witnessing the migration, which includes an estimated 1.4 million wildebeest, is an experience I will never forget. Jan and I traveled to Tanzania with the Field in 2016, and our experience was made magical by the Field Museum scientists who led the trip. The 2018 Tanzania Safari will be led by the very same scientists, Drs. Corrie Moreau and David Willard. After traveling © Joseph Paszczyk with Corrie and Dave, I can attest their knowledge brings an entire- ly new dynamic. They are experts in their fields, and we relished the opportunity to see Africa through their eyes. They shared amazing insights about what we saw and made it all the more meaningful by relating it to research happening at the Museum. The Tanzania Safari is designed to ensure you experience African wildlife at its best. The unhurried pace with five full days in the Serengeti and two in Ngorongoro Crater ensures more time for observation and photography and less time spent traveling between sites.

I can promise you if this is your first trip to Africa, “Africa will change your life forever.” Located in East Africa, Tanzania is known for its vast wilderness and wildlife areas including the plains of the famed Serengeti, lovely and quiet Tarangire, Lake Manyara bordered by the Great Rift Valley, and the vast Ngorongoro Crater. Throughout my 40 years of working with exotic animals from all over the world, this is an experience you don’t want to miss. There is no place on earth where you can see so many incredible animals up close and every day. You’ll discover this for yourself as daily game drives allow us to explore the habitats in which so many thrive. Very good are our chances of seeing the “big five” - elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo and rhino. Tanzania is also one of the best places for spotting cheetahs. Add to the list zebra, wildebeest, hippo, giraffe, antelope, dik-dik, gazelle, eland, kudo, and more than 1,000 bird species, and we’ve just scratched the surface of what this wildlife mecca has in store. Visits to and/or with some of the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium’s conservation partners are also planned so you can see firsthand how these partnerships benefit the wildlife and people of Tanzania.

  • Spatial and Temporal Variations in the Abundance and Diversity of Phytoplankton in Lake Manyara, Tanzania
    International Journal of Innovative Studies in Aquatic Biology and Fisheries (IJISABF) Volume 1, Issue 1, June 2015, PP 1-14 www.arcjournals.org Spatial and Temporal Variations in the Abundance and Diversity of Phytoplankton in Lake Manyara, Tanzania 1*Kihwele, E.S., 2Lugomela, C., 2Howell, K.M., Nonga, H.E. 1Tanzania National Park, Arusha, Tanzania. 2University of Dar es Salaam, Dares Salaam, Tanzania 3Department of Veterinary Medicine and Public Health, Sokoine University of Agriculture, Morogoro, Tanzania. *[email protected] Abstract: This study evaluated the temporal dynamics of phytoplankton species diversity and abundance in relation to some physico-chemical parameters in Lake Manyara for a period of fourteen consecutive months (between July 2007 and August 2008). The aim was to relate the temporal variability in the physico-chemical parameters of the lake to the abundance and diversity of phytoplankton. Three sampling sites were established in the lake, and data were collected once every month. Electrical conductivity, salinity, water temperature, dissolved oxygen; turbidity, transparency and pH were measured in-situ using a water quality checker Water samples for nutrients and phytoplankton abundance and species composition were analysed at the University of Dar es Salaam. In the laboratory, the concentration for inorganic nutrients were determined using a Shimadzu UV-spectrophotometer. Salinity and pH values in the lake ranged from 0.1 ‰ to 40 ‰ and from 6.23 to 10.67 respectively. However, there were shift in phytoplankton community dominance between Anabaena sp to Arthrospira sp likely due to differences in salinity and pH thresholds requirements. Nitrate, phosphate and ammonium concentrations ranged from 0.5 to 3.2 µg/l, 0.5 to 570 µg/l and 0.5 to 10.5 µg/l respectively while conductivity varied between 8.7 to 84.5 mS/cm.
