| Evolution & Innovation
A study of the history, methods, practicalities, successes and failures of conservation in Southern Africa. This in depth study looks provides case studies of many of Southern Africa's parks, the pros and cons of hunting (Hunting, after the dire colonial periods when it was de rigueur to kill as much as possible just for the hell of it, is now probably responsible for saving wildlife in many areas.), and the financial and social affects of the many national parks. The evidence is supported by a huge amount of facts and figures, covering wildlife populations over time in many areas, number of tourists, revenue from tourism and hunting, and comparisons between farming and game ranching.
