South Africa sounds loud call of wild
Long excluded from parks, blacks are being wooed in drive to educate new conservationists.
DENNILTON, South Africa -- With trepidation evident in his face, Josiah Phalane reached a wavering hand out and touched the spotted tail in front of him, then jumped back as Byron, a tame cheetah, turned around to take a look at him as well.
"I have never even heard about animals like this," Phalane said in wonderment, once out of range of Byron's claws. "It's very exciting."
Phalane, a small-town kid with dreadlocks, always dreamed of being an airline pilot. But after meeting Byron during a program to expose South African youth to wildlife conservation efforts, the 19-year-old was rethinking his plans.
"I would never have even thought about it," he said when asked whether he had considered a career in conservation.
But now, "I would be very interested," he said. "I like this."
Conservation in South Africa, like in many African countries, long has been dominated by whites. Most game reserves were created during colonial rule, often by displacing black people. In South Africa, blacks were barred from visiting the country's parks during 40 years of apartheid rule.
The result is that many black Africans have little experience with and feel little connection to wildlife.
Conservation is widely seen as an elitist pursuit. White-run campaigns to save species have alienated legions of poor people who feel they matter less than the animals. In South Africa, a nation with one of Africa's best systems of game parks, most children have never seen a wild animal, except on television.
"People think of reserves as places where you remove the black man, put in a fence, put in animals and then people come and appreciate them," said Mantlako Sebaka, a marketing manager with South Africa's national parks service. "Black people don't appreciate that."
That reality presents an enormous risk for the future of conservation in Africa. Millions of poverty-stricken people look across game park fences and see land ripe for farming, while African leaders struggle to defend conservation spending when faced with so many other pressing social needs, environmental officials say.
Mandela sounds alarm
Many people see parks as "meaningless or even costly," warned former South African President Nelson Mandela in a speech at the World Parks Congress meeting in Durban last year. "In South Africa, it is time to break with this legacy."
That is now slowly happening as government conservation officials, teachers, private safari operators and international wildlife officials begin leading a broad campaign to boost black involvement with and support for conservation.
In South Africa, the national parks system in conjunction with the country's tourism agency is looking at ways to lure more blacks to game reserves.
Wilderness Safaris, a vacationtechnician.com partner, now plays host to local children for a week each year at several of its camps in Botswana, Namibia, Malawi and South Africa, and is opening a full-time wilderness camp for children on South Africa's southeast coast.
International conservation organizations such as the African Wildlife Foundation and the World Wildlife Fund provide scholarships and other funding to help educate a new generation of black conservationists.
And wildlife protection groups, such as the De Wildt Cheetah and Wildlife Center near Pretoria, have begun taking wild cats into black schools in an effort to convince kids that animals are worth protecting.
"It's critical to do this," said Marilyn Hull, the manager of educational programs at De Wildt and handler for goodwill ambassador cheetah Byron, who visits several black schools a week. "We need to reach these children and get them involved."
Changing ideas about the importance of conservation isn't easy.
For most of the last century, conservation in South Africa has "appealed almost exclusively to the affluent, educated, mainly white minority," noted Farieda Khan, a University of Cape Town doctoral candidate.
But environmental officials are trying some creative ideas. Marketers at South Africa's national parks service have persuaded "Isidingo," one of South Africa's more popular soap operas, to film episodes in the country's national parks, with leading black characters ruing what they had missed by not visiting earlier.
The parks service also is working with schools to include conservation education as part of the core curriculum.
A divergent career path
"Conservation is not a traditional career for blacks, who aspire to be lawyers, doctors, politicians," said Patrick Bergin, president and CEO of the African Wildlife Foundation, based in Washington. But his organization and others, he said, are funding master's and doctoral work by promising black conservationists and "are looking for the next black Jane Goodall or Richard Leakey."
Leading international conservation groups also have acknowledged in recent years that conservation can no longer simply be about fencing endangered areas. Sustainable conservation, most say, involves ensuring that neighbors of protected areas get some economic benefit from parks, such as jobs.
There are already plenty of signs of progress. Communities neighboring some of the country's top game reserves are being offered the opportunity to run lodges and other accommodation in or near the parks.
Hector Magome, a black PhD, is head of conservation services for the South African national parks service. And Byron the cheetah and his handlers receive letters from a growing number of young big-cat fans.
"When I was growing up, people told me that animals like cheetahs should die, that they have no use," wrote one student. "But when they chose me to go and learn about cheetahs, I was happy. Thank you for coming to teach us about cheetahs. Now I know better than most people."

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
International private sector partnership attempts to tackle �Kyoto Protocol Exempt Global Airline Industry�s Pollution,� -one traveler at a time.
Greenwood Lake, New York (PRWEB) Nov 24, 2004 � The Global Airline Industry is sharply reducing the positive environmental benefits of the Kyoto Protocol.
A: "At the Third Session of the Conference of the Parties in Kyoto,
international aviation emissions were not included in the agreed targets,
because of the difficulties that had arisen over the methodologies for
allocating these emissions".
Global Warming & Kyoto Aviation Loophole: its IN the Air...just not ON
the Air.
Here you will find details on the vacationtechnician.com campaign to raise public awareness and introduce a private sector solution for this important and under-reported Global Environmental Travel issue.
The travel industry's approach to Global Warming is with few exceptions, a
classic case of comprehensive denial. Travel and tourism, the largest
industry in the world and cash cow of many countries, is loathe to discuss
the issue.
When I began vacationtechnician.com in 1999 with a mission to explore,
preserve and protect the remaining wilderness/cultural areas in the world
I had no idea: the Kyoto Protocol left open an enormous loophole for the
rapidly growing/polluting airline industry.
The Kyoto Protocol "Aviation Emmission Loophole," was was never effectively
reported by world media. The silently gathering consequences of the
travel/airline/tourism industry's rapidly increasing upper atmosphere
carbon emmissions never even showed up on the environmental issues radar.
What we did hear about from the media was the polarizing Global Warming
political banter; pro and con that the USA won't sign Kyoto, claims of bunk science and dire predictions of catastrophic environmental events.
The Solution: "Beyond all the naysayers and Hot Air."
The VacationTechnician Company is the first American company to
directly address Global Warming and Travel; as it pertains to individual
responsibility and accountability. We have raised the environmental awareness of this issue within our own industry and at the same time providing a responsible solution with partner Climatecare to allow our travelers to 'opt in,' and pay a small 'carbon offset' we then add to their holiday invoice.
The 'carbon offset' proceeds in full, are then turned over to a registered
non-profit organization for investment in carbon reduction projects in
countries less economically advantaged, excluding non signatory countries to Kyoto.
The VacationTechnician Company ClimateCare Solution Press Release
Now, the traveling public can rise above the government sanctioned deadlock of
the current Kyoto Protocol and take personal responsibility for their
individual carbon production while they travel by jet aircraft. Grassroots awareness may give politicians a clue to recognize the enviromental
impact of the proliferation of low cost airlines and travel worldwide.
Our hope at is that regardless of the current debate surrounding this polarizing issue, travelers will now understand that there is an enlightened choice available that will make a direct impact in the life of millions of people in less fortunate countries worldwide and potentially stem the projected effects of Global Warming.
The VacationTechnician Company will continue to call for travel/airline/government reform. Please feel free to contact us for further information.

Inexpensive International Cell Phone Service -- Be prepared BEFORE you go to abroad, and have your phone ready with free unlimited incoming calls
If you're buying an international 'world phone' be sure it operates in all three bands and is 'unlocked' to allow it to work with any service provider in the world.
Did you know: Outside north America cell phone coverage and quality of service is far superior and cheaper that of either the United States or Canada?
Everywhere excluding the USA, cell phone subscribers do not pay for incoming calls and do pay low outgoing rates.
Here is how you, as a traveler outside the USA, can take advantage of these low rates that are just fractions of what it would cost to rent a cell phone or to roam with your North American provider, making having a cell phone abroad a luxury that you can afford.
Outside North America cell operators have opted to utilize the GSM standard for their cellular service. GSM offers digital service that is so crystal clear that it is difficult to discern if you are on a cellphone or using a landline.
Whether you are in Paris, the Zurich or tucked away in a luxury abode in Tuscany, you are very likely to have cell phone reception.
If you are traveling or an expat living abroad and want to use your current USA cell phone, you most likely will not be able to do so unless you have a GSM tri-band phone.
Choosing to pay less Abroad.
Most Expensive Option: Calling your North American provider
Getting set up in this manner with your current service provider will allow you to retain your US phone number and receive and make calls anywhere in the world. Usually there is a monthly fee for being able to use the service internationally plus high roaming rates (call rates) and other applicable charges such as renting the handset and having it delivered to you.
Last Minute, at the Airport or Destination
Another alternative is to rent a cell phone with service. You can rent a cell phone at any international airport or through many of the traditional channels such as the yellow pages/internet. Rates are generally $25-$50 per week for the handset rental plus charges for actually placing and receiving calls. There are usually minimum per day or per week usage rates, regardless if you use the service or not.
The Least Expensive Solution
Alternatively, and this is by far the least expensive alternative, you can use the same service that the world outside North America uses. You will be paying local rates which are inexpensive and include unlimited, free incoming calls from anywhere in the world. Calls to the US are inexpensive costing only about $0.80 per minute, but, in order to save further, you may ask people to call you back on your cellular number. That way you can literally speak on the phone for hours and not incur any charge. While the person calling you will be paying for an international call, rates to Europe are very reasonable � especially if the person calling you chooses the right provider.
In order to take advantage of paying local cellular rates you must obtain a GSM cell phone and also SIM card for one of the cellular providers in that country.
Most countries, use the 900/1800 GSM frequency, so, you will need to obtain this type of GSM phone, and, you must make sure that it is unlocked.
Check here if you have a US based GSM phone and want to unlock it online:
GSM phones come from the manufacturer unlocked - it is the carrier that locks them. You can obtain both the SIM card and the phone from Cellularabroad.com.
A prepaid SIM card allows you to slip the card into your GSM phone, and, since it is prepaid, you will not have any restricting contracts or minimal use requirements. With cellular service this great, it looks like the French have just one more thing to boast about.
Cellular Abroad is offering a $10 discount to all vacationtechnician.com visitors. Be sure to mention vacationtechnician.com or, if ordering online, enter promo code 'vt10'. Enter the code at www.cellularabroad.com or call 1-800-287-3020 and tell them vacationtechnician sent you to get 10USD off your service.

Serra Cafema Namibia Safari Report -
Plan a Serra Cafema Safari with vacationtechnician.com
June has been a great month for Serra Cafema. We were very busy with the peak season starting. Our guests came from all over the world, from as far as New Zealand and as close as South Africa. Serra Cafema is a knock out for our guests, some saying they now no longer have to go to the moon, Serra Cafema is better.
The Himba tribe continues to amaze people. Even though not many of them have remained at the village, they still give the guests a good impression on how they live in this barren area. They really have such a rich culture, there is so much to learn from them.
We still have not had any rain, however, some of the animals are returning to the area. Temperatures have dropped somewhat in the mornings and evenings, however, the fireplace in the main area is very cozy and the best spot to warm up and relax after a long day out on the quad bikes. We are also getting more and more foggy mornings in camp, it sure makes getting out of bed very difficult.
The water level of the Kunene is going down quite rapidly, making the boat trips shorter and the crocodile viewing better with a 3 meter croc daily waiting at the rapids close to camp. The bird life is great. Night life has been booming with regular sightings of Black-backed Jackal and Brown Hyaena around camp.
Serra Cafema remains the best place to end your safari in Namibia, or even Botswana. After a hectic safari of getting up early in the mornings and being kept busy throughout the day, Serra Cafema is the spot to come and relax at. Our activities will also keep you busy, but the water in the late afternoons and evenings will sooth your soul back to normality.
Come see for yourselves how beautiful our dunes and mountains are, this is a little peace of heaven on earth.
Serra Cafema Camp is one of the most remote camps in all of Southern Africa and offers one of the most memorable experiences in Namibia. The small 16 bedded camp, whose only access is by aircraft, is located in the extreme north-west of Namibia and is further away from Namibia's capital city, Windhoek, than from Botswana's Okavango Delta.
Serra Cafema shares this region with the wonderful and colourful Himba people who are some of the last true nomadic people of Africa. The Kunene River is the only permanent source of water and creates an oasis along its banks surrounded by rugged mountains and sand dunes.
The camp is situated under big shady Albida trees overlooking the Kunene River and comprises 8 canvas and thatched chalets that are raised off the ground, each with its own en-suite bathroom. Other facilities include a small swimming pool, dining room and bar. One goes to sleep at night to the gurgling water sounds from the rapid just downstream from camp.
In stark contrast, during the day, guests spend their time exploring one of the planet's driest deserts. Activities include enjoying the breath-taking landscape scenes with Springbok, Ostrich and Oryx dotted here and there, traversing the sand dunes in 4x4 Landrovers and boating on the Kunene River where we can watch for the Kunene crocodiles.
Walking in the remote mountain and river valleys are also a highlight. Serra Cafema is often visited by the native Ovahimba families who live in the nearby vicinity, which gives guests the opportunity to learn about their lifestyle and traditions.
Guests can get into some of the massive sand dunes to the west of the camp.
Game viewing in this area is limited to large herds of Oryx and springbok in the Hartman's valley. The Kunene River has a large population of Nile Crocodiles. Cinderella Waxbills, Rufous Bellied Palmtrush and Grey Kestrels are three species of bird not seen anywhere else in southern Africa, Palm nut vultures are seen occasionally as well as a number of the Namibian endemics.

Mkambati People finally own their Land!
Under the restitution of land process in the post-1994 South Africa, the Mkambati community has been awarded their land and the ownership of the Mkambati Nature Reserve.
In 1919, the Mkambati people of South Africa�s Wild Coast were dispossessed of the land they lived on, stretching from the rolling hills of Pondoland to the Indian Ocean. After 1994, South Africa�s groundbreaking Land Restitution Act allowed them to begin the process of reclaiming their land. On October 17th, 2004, the process came to a successful conclusion with the signing ceremony, returning the land to its original owners. Since vacationtechnician.com partner Wilderness Safaris is a major partner of the Mkambati Land Trust, which represents the 40 000 people living on the boundary of the Mkambati Nature Reserve, Wilderness concession managers Charles and Linda van Rensburg were amongst those who came to take part in this historic moment.
The official signing ceremony took place at Mkambati Nature Reserve on Sunday the 17 October 2004. What a truly amazing day!
Despite the wind and rain, most of the people were kept nice and dry in the massive marquee styled tent provided by the Department of Land Affairs. It seated around 1500 people with hundreds and hundreds more standing outside trying to get a glimpse of the proceedings and the dignatories, most of whom were in traditional dress.
The Senior Delegates were as follows:
National Minister of Department of Agriculture and Land affairs, Ms T.Didiza Premier for the Eastern Cape, Ms N Balindlela Executive mayor - O.R Tambo District Municipality, Ms Z Capha MEC for Economic affairs and Tourism, Mr A De Wet MEC for Agriculture and Land Affairs, Mr M Mamase
Most of the ceremony was in Xhosa but we felt like we could understand every word from the excitement and electricity happening in the crowds. A few of the dignitaries even sang traditional Pondo songs that have existed for hundreds of years and the crowds responded in song, nearly lifting the roof, just proving that the Pondo culture is alive an kicking in the Mkambati community! Traditional Pondo and Xhosa dancers entertained the crowds as their drum rhythm set the tone for the masses to cheer them on.
One of the Mkambati Land Trust members, Mr Kuzwayo, gave a speech on the history of the Mkambati claim, telling the story of how the amaPondo tribe in Mkambati - 326 households - were forcefully removed from their 17 400-hectare land in 1920 after the area was zoned for the establishment of a leper institution. When the Transkei became one of apartheid South Africa�s �independent homelands� in 1976, a second forced removal took place as part of what was termed �betterment planning� and the leprosy institution was closed. Half of the land was allocated to Transkei Agricultural Corporation (TRACOR) to grow sugar cane and the other half was declared the Mkambati Game Reserve. In 2002, The Mkambati Land Trust was formed to represent 40 000 people living in the seven surrounding village wards inland from Mkambati. The Mkambati Land Trust now owns the land for and behalf of these inhabitants.
Part of the land claim covers a provincial protected conservation area that is presently used as a nature reserve. The claimants have made an undertaking to maintain it as a protected conservation area (and have even promised to double the size of the reserve in future.)
Finally the moment we were all waiting for arrived, as the three representatives stepped up to the podium to sign the document that would change the future of their community forever. To record the moment, Colin Bell leopard-crawled up to the signing table and zoomed in on the certificate that was handed to the chairman of the Mkambati Land Trust, Mr Vimba.
To show their gratitude to the Minister of the Department of Agriculture and Land affairs, Ms Toko Didiza, the Mkambati Land Trust presented her with a traditional Pondo garment as well as a cow, as a gift commemorating the special day. They rounded a up a herd of bulls that almost entered the tent, led her outside and presented her with the largest one. She was so taken back, that tears started rolling down her face.
There was an overwhelming sense of peace and contentment that came over the crowd; it almost became silent for minute or two. Then they all cheered and the celebrations began! There was enough food and tywala(traditional beer) to cater for 6000 people, so there was nothing stopping this party from happening!
Finally, after many months of hard work, we can look forward to the Mkambati Project getting off the ground. This project is a result of a unique partnership between the Mkambati Land Trust, Wilderness Safaris, the Eastern Cape Parks Board and local businessmen and aims to restore the Nature Reserve to its full potential and ensure that it is protected for posterity. This project will provide upliftment and positive change the lives of 40 000 of the poorest people in South Africa.
See you all at the new Mkambati!
