Elephant Poachers in Kenya

The 1970s was the time of the greatest destruction to our elephant and rhino population. Jomo’s people were the main beneficiaries.

Yes. They seem to be suffering from a kind of mass cultural hypnosis surrounding Johnstone’s legacy. Since when does royalty involve itself in peasant riots and petty theft? Those are activities for the lowborn.

Hunting was LEGAL in Kenya until 1977 when it was banned. All you needed was to apply for a hunting permit from KWS and you go to a national park, hunt elephant and sell the ivory. Kenya at the time was known as the BIG GAME hunting destination and mzungus were making alot of money. The biggest exporter of game trophies was Zimmerman Ranch currently located in present day Zimmerman estate, nairobi. And the biggest ivory trading market was at Mombasa. So there was nothing wrong with africans also benefiting from wildlife and ivory just like the msungus were doing.

Today countries such as Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, Zimbabwe, mozambique allow hunting and they are benefiting from their wildlife. In kenya when mzungus lost control of the wildlife after independence that is when they pushed the govt to ban hunting and instead they promoted conservation and tourism so that they could still continue benefitting from the wildlife not through hunting but via their tourism companies and lodges

Elephant hunting is still big business today in Botswana, Namibia, SA and other countries. They are today making alot of cash from hunting and sale of ivory.

So in your view, we should allow elephant hunting despite their 70% decline in population if a few Africans benefit, most of whom are in government and not in some smelly slum? Do you even read your own statements after you post them or do you just wait for someone else to point out the flaws in your thinking process.

And FYI poaching is different from big game hunting in more ways than just the spelling.

So the people of botswana, SA, namibia etc dont know that elephant population has declined 70%? We know your hate is because some okuyu had a permit to export ivory like the mzungus while other kenyans were busy drinking busaa in the villages. We also know there is a current agenda to promote anti-okuyu hate to try shift focus from the nationwide gen Z agitation and also to try divide the gen Zs into tribal cocoons so that they dont all unite against WANTAM.

Do you know how strict they are in those countries with licensing? The animal population has to have an excess population so as to justify culling. We used to give permits when we could also justify the same, but we can’t do that anymore that’s why KWS pays victims of human wildlife conflict ( at a great expense too) rather than put down an animal which can be relocated. That’s how bad their numbers are because of poaching in the 70s and 80s. How much do you think each of those permits cost to sell? Millions, probably.

Where does carnivore restaurant get game meat?
