This is a great short film that explore the role of hunting and phototourism in Botswana. If you're someone who thinks photo tourism can replace hunting or that hunting brings nothing to communities...or that communities want it banned...you need to watch. My guess is you won't

Prof Adam Hart 🦏 Thank you Adam. Botswana is the perfect example of where photo-tourism and hunting tourism can work in harmony to the benefit of people and wildlife.

I'd say these snooker fans got lucky

Have stayed away from this for a while, but I was sadly just reminded of how little human life means to some people. Two local workers were killed in ISIS attacks on a Safari camp in Mozambique. This account and its followers are celebrating, because it has interrupted hunting.

Respect #nature.

If you think ISIS killing camp staff is good for wildlife then you have not idea about the conservation landscape in Mozamabique and no idea how conflicts affect wildlife numbers.

I get updates like this from India almost daily. Tigers and leopards making (usually predatory) attacks on people often don't even make State news now, but this one did - 3 killed in one attack.

I often see people saying that "Africans don't want trophy hunting". Sure, some don't. Many do. And here are some African academics making the case that hunting benefits conservation and communities, and calling for regional customers. An interesting read researchgate.net/profile/Martin…

Wow! My film The Real Yellowstone has been selected for inclusion in the World Film Festival in Cannes! World Film Festival in Cannes please like, comment & share!

In a crowded field of "celebrities talking nonsense" this piece by Chris Tarrant on trophy hunting warrants special mention. So much incorrect here I'm surprised even The Express published it. And here is Chris is his very own trophy photo! Staggering express.co.uk/news/uk/206179…

This little beauty is an Orange-tailed Clearwing Moth. They are rare in Wiltshire. We had a phenomenal 8 in the garden today. They constitute only the 17th record for Wiltshire!
