Poaching, ivory & elephant problems

In the latest episode of ‘Lumumba’s Africa’, Professor PLO Lumumba tackles the critical problem of poaching. For many years, the rich diversity of wildlife in Africa has faced severe threats from rampant poachers operating in various regions across the continent. Africa is a home for its Big Five, all of which fall victim to the self-serving actions of hunters. Professor Lumumba examines the ways in which hunting can be regulated in a way that is essential for the preservation of the abundant wildlife of the Mother Continent.
