The Value of Tourism in Conservation
An avid photographer himself, Sam also started taking pictures,
explaining to myself and the other guests on the vehicle about the
behaviour of giraffe. Sam had just finished explaining that giraffe do
not have horns but ‘ossicones’ when he abruptly paused in his speech; he
requested his binoculars (which a guest had borrowed), focused them and
declared that this giraffe was in fact the survivor of a botched
poaching effort.
Video: Amur tiger released in Russia 2015
The tiger, named “Uporny” – the Russian word for stubborn – had been captured around Khabarovsky province where he had been eating dogs, bringing him into potential conflict with humans. The Government Forest Department (Ministry of Natural Resource of Khabarovsky Province) organised and implemented the trans-location operation with the assistance of WWF and the Amur Tiger Center. Uporny was taken to the Utyos Rehabilitation Center, the largest wild animal rehabilitation center in the Russian Far East. Here he was given a general health check, including an inspection of his teeth. He was vaccinated for common diseases and also fed prey to assess his hunting abilities and suitability for release into the wild.
