How Do We Stop Poaching?
The daily drama of money and work from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ.
Could investing in wildlife tourism help win the battle to eradicate poaching and the ivory trade?
Andy Jones reports from Gabon on efforts to prove that more money can be made from tourism, than the illegal trade there.
And we also hear from Zimbabwe, and the controversial industry of licensed big game hunting, which proponents say can support wildlife conservation. We hear from Wilfried Pabst who runs the Sango game reserve in the country, and Teresa Telecky, senior director of wildlife at the Humane Society International.
