We brought in a Siemens Sonar to the bush, pregnant mother will know what gender they caring, also a special machine that listen to the hart-rate of the unborn child, it’s a new thing for this area. The equipment donated for a large amount coming straight from hunting, please understand that this would not happened without income from hunting, green people like to stop hunting in the world, but how they can support local needs ???
Photos under here shows the meeting that was hold today focused by Michael de Gré-Dejestam on anti-poaching in front of His Royal Highness Chief Luembe and the local CRB located around Mbizi Game Reserve.

Night patrol from our anti poaching groups is very effective, well done to group ONE, two poachers arrested yesterday night with a shotgun loaded with buckshots, thanks to income from small selectiv trophy hunting we can then founding this patrols on Mbizi, without anti-poaching there should be NO game at all in this part of Africa !

A videoclip one evening at Mbizi, it’s a pure evidence that hunting is the tool for substantial wildlife conservation. Without income from hunting we can’t keeping anti-poaching units that protect the animals. So this is the result of a very small off take from legal and controlled hunting.... it’s stimulating and keep us continue.

Pressure on poaching. Photo 1: Our anti-poaching unit 1 with snares, the silent killer in Africa... Photo 2 : Arresting of a poacher, Photo 3 : Anti poaching unit 2 doing well. Photo 4: Home made bullets & gun powder seized. With small ground units and a cooperation with ZAWA the fight continue to save the wildlife and animals of Africa. Important to know that income from selective hunting give direct financial support to running our anti-poaching units at Mbizi, and with a ban on hunting or even restricted import bans of hunting trophy's there will not be any animals left in this part of Africa because we will running out of financial possibility to keep the people on the ground to protect the wildlife from poachers !
