Game Ranching Tip;

If you follow and read the Zambia’s climate report, you will realize that the country’s weather trends have been changing;

Zambia’s summer temperatures have been increasing by 0.3 to 0.6 Degreee Celsius every 10 years while the rainy season duration has reduced by close to a month in the last 20 years. In view of such climate changes the country has been encouraged to invest in more drought resistant livestock (or alternatives) and to provide supplementary feeding to livestock during the drier seasons.

I just want to assure you that there is nothing more drought resistant than wild animals, they are called wild animals because even when the weather gets wild, wild animals at least try to thrive 😉.

Compared to domesticated livestock where Feed is the most significant cost of production, often representing as much as 60-70% of production costs, keeping wildlife will reduce those costs to between 0 to 15 % production costs when the wildlife has been given the right habitat and the correct stocking densities.

Some farms as seen in the photo below have gone an extra step at ensuring good nutrition to their wildlife by planting palatable grass and slightly manipulating the habitat to accommodate some healthy vegetation regrowth and more palatable vegetation.

Invest in game ranching and you will not go wrong!!

The West Lunga National Park

Located in North Western Province, the West Lunga National park is one of our smallest and least visited parks, covering an area of around, 1700 square kilometers.

The park is bordered by two rivers, the Kabompo River and the Lunga River.

Unlike other parks, the West Lunga National Park is predominantly covered in dense forest with some dambos and patches of grassland.

This dense forest makes the park the perfect habitat for the Yellow-backed Duiker.

The West Lunga was actually established as a National Park to create a safe haven and protected area for the Yellow-backed Duiker.

The Yellow-backed Duiker is a forest dwelling antelope. Nocturnal by nature, these antelopes have hidden places where they rest during the day, usually in the dense forest vegetation.

The Yellow-backed Duiker has a convex body shape, meaning they stand taller at the rump than at the shoulders.

The Yellow-backed Duiker gets its name from the characteristic patch of yellow hair on its back. These hairs form a sort crest, that runs down the center of their back.

If alarmed, they will erect this yellow crest on their back, give off a distinctive alarm call and disappear into the thick bush. This makes them extremely illusive and very difficult to sight.

One day me and my colleague Dr Jackson Zozo Katampi were making a wildlife education presentation to some school kids who visited Kafue National Park on a school field trip and one flashy looking blinged up kid asked a question; why do you people who work in the wild wear ugly clothes? Why don't you wear some nice clothes so that animals can like you? Please provide me with some good answers to our good kid🙏🏾.

Wishing you all a beautiful and blessed week!

For those going to the trade fair in Ndola let's interact, National Parks under the Ministry of Tourism will be present to chat Zambia's wildlife conservation and how we can all participate!

Threats the Survival of Elephants face;

1. Poaching for ivory is the largest threat against elephants.
2. Loss of habitat by human encroachment etc
3. Human-wildlife conflict,(Retaliatory killing) &
4. Climate change are also threatening their survival.

Most of the reasons above are human caused (Anthropogenic).

Let's all unit for a common goal to conserve Zambia's wildlife 🙏🏾. 🇿🇲

Norman Joseph Carr.
Do you know who set up most of Zambia’s national parks? Do you know who was one of the pioneers of walking safaris?
Born Norman Joseph Carr, MBE (19 July 1912 in Mozambique.
Norman Carr shot his 50th elephant on his 20th birthday when he was a government elephant control officer in Northern Rhodesia. It was a dangerous but necessary job, for the local tribes depended on what they grew and, if marauding elephants destroyed the crops, the villagers faced hunger and real hardship. Carr was one of four such officers in the country. Of the other three, one died of drink, one after being mauled by a lion and the tombstone of the third reads "Killed by his 350th elephant".
Like the children of many British parents working in the colonies, Carr was sent to England to be educated when he was just six years old. He didn't see his beloved Africa or his parents again until he was 17, when he worked briefly in his father's to***co business in Blantyre, Nyasaland, before taking the first opportunity offered to get out into the bush. He was appointed to the Game and Tsetse Department of Northern Rhodesia in 1935, as an elephant control officer.
A formidable hunter, Carr was slight of stature, but he was tough and intrepid. "You don't really know a country until you've walked it," he declared as he set out to cover Rhodesia on foot, walking alone for months with just a few tea-bags and some quinine in his knapsack. He lived off the land as he went, gathering the knowledge which would later enable him to set up National Parks for the Rhodesian government and personally train the rangers and wardens.
After serving as an officer with the King's African Rifles in North Africa during the Second World War, Carr returned to Rhodesia with a new idea - perhaps it would be possible for villagers to make money out of protecting, rather than killing, elephants and other animals. He realised that, to make such a scheme work, the people on the land would have to benefit directly. He spoke to Paramount Chief Nsefu in the Northern Province, who was mystified as to why people would want to pay to watch animals but was willing to try the experiment. In 1950, having built six simple rondevaals (mud huts) for overnight shelter, Carr brought the first visitors from Chipeta, a town 100 miles away. They shot with cameras instead of rifles and during the first year paid the chief and his council the then substantial sum of pounds 100 for the privilege. Eco-tourism in Africa was born.
The first National Park Carr established was Kafue, where he became warden. Matching the example being set by Joy and George Adamson, he rehabilitated back into the wild lion cubs whose mother had been shot. Although the cubs learnt to kill and live off their hunting, the experiment was perhaps not altogether successful, as one birdwatcher reported. He had driven into a remote area of the park and sat looking through his binoculars when a great lion appeared and pinned him down by sitting on his lap.
When Northern Rhodesia became the independent Republic of Zambia in 1964, Carr had no difficulty in deciding to stay on: he remembered with distress his early banishment to a country with very little sunshine or space. Not that Zambia was without its frustration. "Bureaucracy thrives and there is no word for maintenance in any of the local languages. But if I get fed up," he said, "I just remember Regent Street with all its noise and pollution. That calms me down."
Carr wrote several books, all illustrating his love and knowledge of Zambia. The first three, Return to the Wild (1962), The White Impala (1969) and Valley of the Elephants (1972) were published in the UK and the last, Kakuli was published last year in Zimbabwe. Kakuli is the affectionate name by which the locals called him - it means "Old Buffalo".
His success in setting up the National Parks was in part due to the good relationship Carr developed with the Rhodesian and later the Zambian government. He had befriended Kenneth Kaunda and introduced him to the richness of the country's wildlife before he became president in 1964. Kaunda had a small lodge in the Luangwa Valley and continued to visit Carr regularly. Prince Andrew, the Duke of Edinburgh and Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands were also visitors.
The Luangwa Valley National Park, which Carr established and worked in from 1960, is rich in game and it was there, after he retired from the Game Department, that he chose to live and set up Kapani, his own tourist camp just outside the park gates, situated by an oxbow lagoon. During the day the birdlife on the water is a never-ending fascination. At night, elephants, lions and giraffes often visit the camp and the dawn chorus is always aided by the raucous honking of hippos. He also had a small camp deep in the bush for serious walkers. There the huts were so flimsy that when you lay in bed you could hear the lions breathing as they padded around exploring the human smells.
At the camp one Christmas morning, Carr took out a family on foot while the cook prepared dinner. They stumbled on a lioness with cubs and had to beat a hasty retreat up a tree while she paced angrily below. They were trapped for hours until a rescue party found them. He received a card every year thereafter from the family "in remembrance of the most exciting Christmas we have ever spent".
Going out on safari with Norman Carr was always an exciting adventure. His vast knowledge and experience meant he could sense in advance what was going on so he might take you in the evening to where 50 elephant were fording the river to seek better feeding ground; the babies completely submerged held their trunks aloft like snorkels. But the Luangwa Valley is still a wild land with ever-present dangers and Carr never underestimated them nor was he too proud to beat a retreat.
Alarm at the devastation caused in Africa by poachers prompted Carr to set up the Rhino Trust in 1970 which later passed into the care of the Worldwide Fund for Nature. After he was appointed MBE for his life's work, Carr suggested the conservation award should really have gone to the tsetse fly. In areas from which the fly had been banished, cattle are brought in to graze and people take over. Where the tsetse fly continues to flourish so does wildlife.
Carr was determined that tourism should not corrupt the local villagers and although he gladly took visitors right into the poorest areas, he would never allow tipping. However he encouraged donations for the local school which he sponsored, paying for uniforms, books and sports equipment. Twice a month he took parties of school children into the park to show them their heritage and teach them the names of the animals so they no longer callled them all "inama" which means "meat". It is to this Kapani School Fund that donations in memory of Norman Carr are being directed.
Norman Joseph Carr, conservationist: born Chinde, Mozambique, 19 July 1912; married 1940 Barbara Lennon (one son, two daughters); died Johannesburg,South Africa, 1 April 1997.

LIFE TODAY

At the World Championships in Budapest in June 2021, USA’s Anita Alvarez sank to the bottom of the pool.

Looking across the deck, then noticing she was under way too long, her coach, Andrea Fuentes immediately dove in after her fully clothed, pulling her to safety. Anita was unconscious and didn’t have the capacity to kick, paddle, or help herself in any way.

If Andrea would not have noticed, she would have drowned.

But she knew Anita. She looked for her, quickly noticed she was under too long, then dove in without thinking twice.

This has resonated with me….

When you are under too long, who are the people that will look for you, notice, and dive in to pull you to the surface when you lose your strength to swim?

Who are the people that would do that for you?

And can someone count on you to be that person that would go looking and notice when they are under too long, diving in to support them when they are all out of fight and fuel to swim in these turbulent waters we call life?

Wishing you all a beautiful blessed Sunday and a productive week friends, let's be each others brothers and sisters keeper!

A delicacy or nuisance species - Crayfish (Cherax and Proncrambus species) an introduced and invasive species in Zambia.

Crayfish have successfully established themselves on the Kafue River basin and Lake Kariba, perhaps even in other parts of the country. It has been highlighted that once established, these species can alter habitats for other biological communities, prey on fish eggs and larva, spread ectoparasites, etc, hence a threat to freshwater ecosystems and their biodiversity.

Fishermen know them for their notorious behaviour of destroying fishing gears and catch. There is high risk of these species spreading into connected waterways.
On the other hand, these species are being caltivated and consumed for food in many parts of the world, an industry that can contribute to the economy of the country.
However, socially these species are still deemed as "unaccepted" or "not normal" fish by many in Zambia. Although there are few food places that serve them. I believe they are not a first choice of fish one would order or buy from a supermarket.

It is still important to note that, perception is slowly changing and that their value is appreciated. The once considered nuisance could possibly be a beautiful disaster.

Eradicating them is not an easy process because of their fast breeding and easy to adapt in different water systems.

As we look for answers on how to save our water systems, we can perhaps also look at the possible economic benefits.

What if their nutritional value is widely studied and emphasised at local community level to teach value addition?

What if we convinced more people that Cray fish can be a very good protein source alternative?

This would encourage their harvest and work as one of the control measures!

What if we exploited them to a point of depletion?🤔.

A very interesting write up by one of our senior nationalist Mr. Mwape Sichilongo, am sure a Doctor who went to Chiengi School of Medicine should be able to answer his question??🤣

On the other hand we have also been to the game ranches around lilayi like Lilayi Lodge and Lusaka National Park to check if there was any change in behaviour of animals there and the animals look very settled a sign there is no animal which has invaded their habitat.

Here is Mr Sichilongo's write up;

Lion of Lilayi

Dear Doc,

I would happily join you to search for the lion of Lilayi. For according to Bisa culture, a lion is never just a lion. It might be an important collective ancestor with a message for the generation and the nation.

Ecologist and Anthropologist Prof Stewart Marks, identified three types of lion that the Bisa people told him about. In his other work , Stewart Marks supervised the book "Poachers, Peasants and Politicians" a Duke University PhD by Clarke Gibson 1995, with some data from Zambia.

My mother's father's sister's son - my uncle, ba yama ba Lusenga, told me about a fourth type of Bisa lion, the white royal lion of Chiundaponde which can only be seen by those who have ancestral authority to see it.

Ironically, immediate past Chief Chiundaponde saw the white lion although he was not of pure royal blood hence the refusal by elders to have his line inherit the throne. I must add that apart from my uncle who has since died, no one else has confirmed this sighting.

So. The royal white lion of Chiundaponde is the fourth type of Bisa lion. The first is the normal lion known in mammalogy as Pantheta leo. The second is the sent lion, or "Inkalamo yakutuma". It is sent to specific individuals to cause harm. Or settle a score.

The third lion is "Inkalamo ya mipashi" the spiritual lion, which is often heard but not seen and not harmful. It delivers a message to the community like an angel. It is up to the community to figure out what the spiritual lion says. We need an oracle!

So which of the four Bisa lions is the Lion of Lilayi?

Lilayi Lion infor sharing;

Lions are by nature territorial animals, meaning they inhabit specific locations as a family (Pride) but their social structure is such that when the male Lion cubs reach sexual maturity at about 4 years of age the dominant male Lion chases them out of the pride. The chased out Lions are the ones which begin to wonder around sometimes finding themselves in communities causing Human Wildlife Conflict cases.

What this means is that when a lion is outside its former territory there are very high chances that the Lion will be sexually mature i.e over 4 years of age or it will be a displaced former dominant male and is likely to be alone or in the company of his brother or friend facing a similar predicament.

I am giving this background because according to the reports we have received; some people reported that the Lions they saw even had cubs, this is a very unlikely situation because cubs must remain with the pride.

A sexually mature male lion is a relatively big Lion which is likely to be over 180kg possessing relatively big paws or footprints. I have put up some photos just to compare with the spoors (Footprints) we have been finding in the places we visited.

Then a lion being a cat has retractable claws meaning their paw prints don't have claw marks when they are moving as illustrated in the pictures below.

We spent the whole afternoon today visiting some places in Lilayi and below are some of the pictures of the paw prints collected.

We will continue with the search tomorrow as we continue to collate the facts on the ground. Please look at the footprints in the photos attentively.

Just remember; this does NOT rule out the possibility of a Lion on the loose, we will only reach that conclusion once we have checked other places where the reports are coming from.

Sincerely grateful to the several individuals who have been reporting, please contine until we are sure that our communities are safe. Let's continue searching and sensitising our friends to stay safe and please don't forget to report any suspicious sighting🙏🏾

Lion Alert!

The Department of National Parks and Wildlife formerly known as ZAWA has been informed of the possibility of the stray Lion roaming around Lilayi, Chawama and now Jack compound area.

We are therefore appealing to the people who live in the areas mentioned above to stay safe by observing the following;

1. Lions are usually active at night and therefore we are urging to you avoid moving on foot especially at night and if you really have to move then make sure that you check around your surroundings by using a spot light (Torch) and ensure that you are safe.

2. Avoid moving alone! Try and move in a group especially those who knock off from work at night.

3. Keep the kids indoors or please es**rt them if they have to move at night.

4. Sensitive your friends in your area. So that the whole community is safe. You can share this message or copy and circulate it in WhatsApp groups.

DNPW (ZAWA) is depending on any current information of a sighting or the spoors (Footprints) to help save the situation. So please report any recent sighting or strange footprints observed in your area. That way we will be able to search and reck the area. These cats are very good at hiding especially if they have moved from a very far place. But at the same time they are not too small to be noticed especially in an environment which is very built up like the subject places mentioned. we should at least be able to see something.

Let's all work together to ensure that no human life is lost 🙏🏾.

Inform a friend to inform a friend and let's all be safe. Please don't forget to inform us of any sighting or footprints urgently🙏🏾

Faith without works is dead James 2:14!!!

I believe most of us made the resolutions for the year 2023 last year so we know exactly what we want to achieve this year. I just wanted to remind us all that even if you belive in that resolution or dream 100% without taking the necessary actions those dreams will simply remain big dreams. So lets take action!!!

The bible also says He will do unto you the very things he hears you say Numbers 14:28! So dont wait for a prophet to speak into your life, prophecy into your life, speak and give your dream life. Let's speak positivity and Know that there is God out there with whom all things are possible!

Sometimes it's very difficult to always go to Church but I want to encourage all of us to have a personal relationship with one Pastor it might not be the Pastor of your church but a Pastor who can make time for you, who understands that sometimes you will not be able to go to Church due to various commitments but stay in touch with him send your offerings and pray even on phone..Visit that Pastor at his free time and pray together. We all need God and we need people to Pray with!

One again May God bless you more and more!! May your 2023 be easy!!!

Fun Fact

that Cheetah’s “tear marks” help them minimise the glare of the sun when hunting.

Since they primarily hunt during the day, unlike other big cats, the tear marks help to reflect away the sun’s glare, making it easier for them to focus on hunting their prey.

Question; which Protected area in Zambia which has in the most recent past reintroduced Cheetahs to its former range land? And why do you think this reintroduction is important? Be the first to answer this question correctly and get a K100 worth of airtime or bundle.

Some of the negative impacts of Poaching (Snaring);

The African Savanna Elephant can grow to a weight of 6,000 Kg (6 tonnes). This means that it needs its 4 legs to manage the huge weight.

Elephants are migratory animals, they move very long distances to find food and water for their survival. Elephant calves are able to stand within 20 minutes of being born and can walk within 1 hour. After two days, they can keep up with the herd. (Amazing!)

But without a good leg through natural selection, the injured Elephant will remain behind and get separated from the herd. It will eventually become easy prey or might die from the complications of the bad leg.

The elephant calf below was spotted in one of our Natioanal Parks. We are currently tracking it so that we can help it medically but the treatment options are either to euthanize it to relieve it of its pain or consider treating the wound. If a prosthetic leg is considered it means that this Elephant calf will be subjected to to live in captivity for the rest of its life.

Let's unit against Poaching to save our precious wildlife 🙏🏾

The importance and contribution of Game Ranching to the conservation of Wildlife Species!!!

The scimitar oryx (Oryx dammah), also known as the scimitar-horned oryx and the Sahara oryx, is a species of antelope that was once widespread across North Africa mainly in the desert habitat.

In the year 2000, the species was declared extinct in the wild by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Fortunately back in the year 1991 21 Scimitar Oryx were trial conserved in a Game Ranch and they were protected and adapted well in the Game Ranch.

In 2016 some of the Scimitar Oryx from the Game Ranch were used to restock a National Park and they adapted very well and then in 2017 another 75 were restocked into another national Park.

Now even South Africa and other parts of the world including the biggest African reserve in the UAE has adapted some in their Game Ranches and the species which was once declared extinct in the wild has continued to thrive both in Game Ranches and Protected National Parks!!!
