CAMERA TRAPS

My thanks go to The African Lion and Environmental Research Trust (ALERT) and David Youldon for supplying the project with 2 Bushnells camera traps and 3 Lumix digital cameras for use in the park survey and anti poaching initiative taking place in Kasungu NP. For details of their work in Africa please see web site below.

My return to Malawi

No luck with raising funds for the project so I have decided to return to Malawi anyway and get on with the survey and anti-poaching as best as I can with limited resources. I have booked my flight for the end of August when the weather is getting hot. The prices of flights are very high due to the summer holidays and Olympics.

I have the spares for the land rover and hope they fix the issues I have with a smoky engine. If not I am in trouble.

The project will continue with the emphasis on continuing with the survey to see what wildlife is around and to continue with the anti poaching initiative which I set up last year.

Poaching and encroachment are still a real issue in the park and if anyone has any ideas of how I can raise money to help save the lives of the wildlife and future of the park please let me know before it is too late.

HOW CAN YOU HELP

WHAT CAN YOU DO TO HELP

• Do you know anyone from Land rover, Toyota, Ford or Nissan that might be able to sponsor a vehicle or its spares parts?
• Fuel supplies needed.
• Sponsor a scout. The scouts need equipment like boots, water proofs, tents and other equipment. $50 will help to ensure one is fully equipped.
• Passive infra red cameras needed for wildlife survey. `$300 each.
• Cheap digital cameras.
• Second hand lap top computers.
• Postage cost of equipment from the UK to Malawi.
• GPS hand held units. $200 each.
• Solar panels and control systems.
• Training equipment. Books, pens and pencils.

TOGETHER WE CAN STOP THIS

PLEASE HELP TO STOP THIS POACHING. ANIMALS LIKE THE BIG CATS AND WILD DOGS ARE NOT EATEN AND ARE KILLED IN THIS HIDEOUS MANOR.
