African Travellers Ltd organizes special tours for those who want to have this extraordinary experience on the islands of Lake Kivu, particularly on islands like Amahoro and Napoleon. In the Karongi region, farmers use these islands as grazing pastures for their cows. Interestingly, they don't transport the cows by boat; instead, the cows swim to the islands. In this tour, you get to join the cattle and their herdsmen as they guide their swimming cows from one island to another using a dugout canoe.

Rwanda has a deep history and a special connection with cows. The swimming cows experience is truly unique, something you won't find elsewhere but guaranteed to bring a smile to your face.

Your day begins with a pickup in one of the cooperative's tour boats, heading out to the archipelago outside Karongi. The landscape is stunning, with numerous green islands creating a beautiful tropical atmosphere. Upon reaching the island where the cows currently graze, the herdsmen gently guide the cows into the water. From the comfort of the boat, you can witness the herdsmen guiding the swimming cows in their dugout canoes to another island. The tour concludes once the cows have safely reached their destination island.

NEW ONLINE TOOLS TO STOP WILDLIFE CRIME IN EAST AFRICA

Today marks the launch of a special online platform designed to help prosecutors in East Africa fight against wildlife crime. This new digital tool aims to make investigations and cooperation among countries in the region stronger.

East Africa is a hot spot for wildlife trafficking because of its rich variety of plants and animals and its connections to international transportation. This makes it an attractive place for poachers and a key route for the illegal trade of wildlife globally.

In response to the growing threat of organized crime harming the environment, TRAFFIC is teaming up with the East Africa Association of Prosecutors (EAAP). Their goal is to raise awareness and build the capacity of prosecutors in East Africa to combat wildlife crime.

Wildlife crime is a big problem because it harms the balance of nature and endangers many species. It also directly affects the local and national economies. The EAAP website and an online course are important tools that will help countries in the region work together to enforce the law and prosecute those involved in wildlife crime.

The EAAP is a group of legal authorities from East African countries, including Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, and South Sudan. It was formed in 2010 to address the increase in serious crimes that cross borders by promoting the rule of law and improving cooperation between countries.

The EAAP website now includes a special section focused on environmental and wildlife crime. This section is meant to encourage collaboration among prosecutors dealing with international cases. It provides a secure place for prosecutors to connect, share information, and learn from each other through webinars and training resources.

The website also offers specialized training, including a new online course called "Enhancing Capacity of Prosecutors in Combatting Wildlife Crime." This resource gives East African prosecutors specific information about the laws, processes, and criminal methods related to wildlife crime in their region.

The Director of Public Prosecutions in Tanzania, who is also the President of EAAP, encourages all prosecutors in the region to use these tools. He believes that by working together and sharing knowledge, they can successfully prosecute those responsible for wildlife crimes.

Jamal Juma, the EAAP Forum Coordinator at TRAFFIC East Africa, says that working with prosecutors on the front lines is crucial in stopping organized criminal networks that harm the environment and communities. The EAAP website is seen as a valuable tool in the fight against these threats.

UGANDA'S NYEGE NYEGE FESTIVAL THRIVES DESPITE GLOBAL TRAVEL WORRIES

Even with travel warnings from the US and UK about potential dangers, the famous Nyege Nyege festival in Uganda went ahead successfully over the weekend.

Held at the beautiful source of the Nile, this yearly event drew a diverse crowd from around the world, showing that people were not afraid of security concerns.

Uganda's unique cultural performances and styles were the main focus, with people from different backgrounds courageously attending despite the foreign warnings.

The festival brought together hundreds of people, proving the strength of the human spirit in the face of external threats.

One tourist, Edward, shared, "To be honest, we were a bit worried, but we decided to come anyway because we already booked our accommodations, and we wanted to go rafting as well. So we decided to go the first night to check how the security is, and we were actually surprised, there was a lot of security."

The travel alerts came after the tragic killing of two tourists and their driver in Queen Elizabeth National Park by suspected rebels. In response, President Yoweri Museveni put strict security measures in place at the festival venue, assuring visitors of the country's safety.

Aly Allibhai, CEO of Talent Africa, emphasized the festival's commitment to safety, saying, "This is a safe place to be, there's a lot of security, we are taking all measures to make sure it's very safe, from the entrance to exit, inside the parameters, everything is covered."

Beyond the cultural festivities, the event was a great opportunity for local businesses, including food vendors, cultural dancers, drama actors, and hotels, as people enjoyed four days of continuous celebration.

One festival-goer shared their excitement, saying, "It's my first time at Nyege Nyege, and I'm here to experience the culture, the rich food, music. The environment, everybody is happy and having a good time, and we feel so welcome to this festival."

Organizers are positive about the festival's future, aiming to keep promoting unity and adding vibrancy to this yearly celebration of diversity. Nyege Nyege not only showcases Uganda's cultural richness but also stands as a symbol of resilience and communal joy that goes beyond global uncertainties.

IN ILLINOIS, THERE IS A WILD AFRICAN CAT ON THE LOOSE!

In Illinois, there's a wild cat on the loose, and it used to be someone's pet. The cat is called a serval, and officials are warning people not to get close if they see it in northeast Decatur. The Macon County Animal Control and Care Center said they don't think the cat will attack people, but because it's a wild animal, it could be dangerous in certain situations.

The serval's owner, Christopher Solomon, had the cat named Reese in his apartment for two weeks. Unfortunately, a guest left the door open, and the cat got out. Solomon woke up one night to find the door wide open and realized the cat was gone. Despite efforts by the police and Animal Control to find Reese, they couldn't locate him.

Solomon bought the serval from another state, and there have been disagreements about whether he's allowed to keep it. According to Solomon, the Illinois Department of Natural Resources said it was okay, but the sheriff's office said it was against the law.

Animal Control is teaming up with experts who rescue exotic animals to catch the serval. They're cautioning people not to approach the cat, especially since it might be scared and hungry. Sgt. Ron Atkins from the Macon County Sheriff’s Office said they don't know how the cat will behave if cornered, so it's better to stay away.

If anyone spots the serval, authorities are asking them to call Animal Control at 217-425-4508, extension 4. Servals are originally from Africa and usually eat rodents, birds, reptiles, and insects. Decatur, where the cat is missing, is about 40 miles east of Springfield.

WHAT IS YOUR HOUGHT ON THIS?

South Africa wants to sell more zebra, crocodile, and other types of meat internationally, and also encourage people in the country to eat these animals.

They've made a plan to make this happen, especially because 80% of wild animals in South Africa are on private land, owned by people. This makes the animals valuable, and the plan wants to make sure this is done legally.

Until now, not much of this meat has been sold officially. In 2019, only 3,000 tons of zebra, crocodile, and ostrich meat were sent to places like the United Arab Emirates, China, and the European Union. This meat is healthier than beef and lamb because it's lean.

The government thinks there's a growing group of people who care about their health and want to buy food that's good for the environment. They believe South Africa can meet this demand by selling game meat locally and globally.

If the plan works, it could create 202,000 jobs by 2030. Most of this meat comes from farms where 16 million wild animals live. In 2016, almost 180,000 of these animals were killed and could have been sold for people to eat.

The plan includes making more than 100,000 tons of game meat each year by 2030, with 85% of it safe for people to eat. They want to move away from hunting and encourage commercial production. They also plan to set up places where these animals can be processed for meat.

The types of animals they are looking to sell for meat include kudu, blesbok, springboks, gemsbok, eland, wildebeest, and impala.

Even though South Africa makes more game meat than New Zealand, it sold much less in 2020—only $12 million compared to New Zealand's $122 million. They hope this plan will change that.

SCIENTISTS UNRAVEL THE MYSTERY OF AFRICAN ELEPHANTS DROPPING DEAD

Scientists have finally figured out why a large number of African elephants mysteriously died in northwestern Zimbabwe in late 2020. It was a big puzzle because these elephants, 35 of them, died within a short period, and 11 of them died in just one day.

Experts were puzzled about what could have caused these deaths, with ideas like poaching, poisoning, and drought being suggested. However, it turns out that a bacterial infection was responsible. The research, published in a journal called Nature Communications on October 25, showed that the elephants were infected with a little-known bacterium called Bisgaard taxon 45, which led to blood poisoning.

These deaths happened during a time when the elephants had trouble finding enough food and water because it was the dry season. They had to travel long distances to search for these resources. The scientists believe that the hot weather, drought, and the high number of elephants in the area all played a role in the outbreak.
the
Scientists are concerned that with climate change causing more extreme weather conditions, we might see more elephant deaths like this in the future. If droughts become longer and rainfall patterns change, the dry season could become harsher, leading to more of these events.

In another part of Africa, in northern Botswana, around 350 elephants died suddenly in the same year. These deaths were attributed to toxins produced by certain bacteria, but more details about the cause were not available.

The African elephant is a threatened species, facing danger from poaching and losing their natural habitats. They are listed as endangered, and their numbers have been declining. To protect them, conservation efforts are crucial.

In the Zimbabwe study, the scientists found evidence of infection in six out of the 15 elephant samples they tested. No other toxins, viruses, or signs of trauma were found, and it wasn't due to poaching or dehydration. The researchers had difficulty detecting the bacteria in some samples because they were taken too late, and sample quality was poor.

This bacterium, Bisgaard taxon 45, has been linked to infections in other animals and humans before. It's a cousin of another bacterium known to cause illness in animals, including Asian elephants. In the past, it was connected to the mass deaths of saiga antelope in Kazakhstan in 2015.

Since 2020, there haven't been any more elephant deaths due to this bacterium in the area, but scientists will keep an eye on it to ensure the safety of these magnificent creatures. Follow AFRICAN TRAVELLERS LTD

Recent research conducted in South Africa's Kruger National Park suggests that many animals exhibit stronger fear responses to human presence compared to other predators like lions. This phenomenon highlights the lasting impact of human influence on wildlife behavior, even in the absence of direct threats, emphasizing the need for conservation efforts.
