Good piece on how some safari lodges are surviving the lockdown from @SimonEspley CEO of Africa Geographic https://t.co/aYxVWifjWI Some reported that 2021 bookings are already showing congestion due to 2020 trips being postponed by a year.

Rhino poaching stats released yesterday by the South African government do not tell the true story of how dire the situation is, says STROOP team

@gamereserve @jevgeniy_b Indeed, ideological posturing of note. Perhaps @jevgeniy_b has a guilt complex about historical colonialism by his forefathers and the ongoing stashing of stolen African resources in Euro banks? Either way, his binary focus on race is misinformed and not productive.

SOUTH AFRICA'S TRANSPARENCY FAILURE REVEALED DURING CITES' CoP18.
Government' failure to confirm remaining population of rhinos left in the wild (national and provincial parks) is cause for great concern, writes Simon Espley

So, how many wild rhino do we have left? @BarbaraCreecy_ requests 'scientific' feedback on proposal to trade in horn and increase trophy hunting but refuses to reveal how many rhino we have left. Huh? My open letter: https://t.co/sQPBua9o6H @environmentza @SANParks @africageo

Jessica, your playing the victim card and not owning this massive mistake makes you appear unrepentant. No apology, no indication of how you will make good your mistake. Africa Geographic has requested feedback via email, but no response from you. Own this. @SalLavallo

[Simon Espley @SimonEspley]

@SalLavallo your input please, for a follow up blog post by @africageo on your eating of #pangolin meat. Please don't deny or claim ignorance. You did what you did.

[Simon Espley @SimonEspley]

So it's ok to eat 'armadillo' meat then? In the video you seem excited to be eating what you called 'bush meat' - what is that - did you ask, as surely any responsible traveller would? Is there any regret in you for promoting the commercialising of #pangolin meat? @africageo

Jessica Nabongo - please explain yourself ? https://t.co/iWpdtpKOX3 … … @africageo @TheCMIYC

[Simon Espley @SimonEspley]

@TheCMIYC @WildlifeTruth @OpFunKill Confess and own your mistake. Your thrill at eating pang meat after being shown the pictures was obvious. THAT is the issue here - your trying to popularise eating a species threatened with extinction by poaching for the bush meat you raved about. Own it. @africageo
