The Hadzabe Tribe Ancestral Traditions in Danger

  As we returned to the village, the Hadzabe women had gathered several fruits and berries but with weak results. Between the hunt and the foraging, the result was impressively little and not enough to sustain the tribe. However, it is said Hadzabe do not encounter famine, being able to find substance regularly, even if on the limited scale. The Hadzabe tribes move their camps to follow the game, and even more so when hunting big animals which body they can’t budge. Given their limited possession – a pot, a blanket or two – the camp can migrate quickly to accommodate the hunting needs. By nature, Hadzabe hunter-gathers go at their tasks daily. The resources, however, have diminished through to the development around them, and especially by the Datooga herders clearing the lands where Hadza traditional live. Dedicated lands have been granted to them by the Tanzanian go

Mother Elephant Rescued from Poacher’s Snare After Being Found in Agony in Zimbabwe

  A wildlife rescue team in Zimbabwe saved the life of an elephant named Martha after she was found limping with a poacher’s snare tightly wrapped around her leg. The wire, which had cut deeply into her flesh, left her in severe pain and unable to walk properly. Martha was spotted by the Musango Island Safari Camp owner, who immediately alerted local conservationist Catherine Norton. Norton, 58, quickly mobilized her team to help Martha, who was accompanied by her young calf. “We had to act fast. Without intervention, she would have died,” Norton explained. The team sedated the elephant, cleaned the infected wound, administered antibiotics, and carefully removed the wire with cutters. Norton added, “It only took her a few minutes to recover, but things could have turned out much worse.” Martha’s calf, still dependent on its mother, would have likely died as well if Martha hadn’t survived. Norton emphasi

Elephant Herd Rushes to Save Calf from Lion Attack in Botswana

  In a dramatic scene in Botswana’s Chobe National Park, a herd of elephants came together to rescue a young calf from a group of lionesses. British photographer James Gifford documented the tense moment when a lioness targeted the lone calf, attempting to bring it down. The lioness was seen stalking the young elephant before launching herself onto its back. However, she lacked the strength to overpower the calf on her own. Just as more lions arrived to assist, the situation took a turn—an entire herd of elephants appeared, coming to the calf’s defense. James Gifford described the moment: “When I saw the elephant herd approaching, the lions stayed low. It didn’t seem like the elephants noticed or saw the lions as a threat.” The lions waited for the adult elephants to pass before two lionesses saw their chance and attacked the isolated calf. “The youngster was terrified, and though one lione
