Trophy hunting: Import ban While the tourist season is in full swing, animal welfare NGOs around the globe call for a ban on hunting trophy imports. Special attention is given to the U.S. and EU travellers, who are the major clients of modern taxidermists. In a joint position manifesto 137 conservation and animal protection organisations from all around the world, including 45 NGOs from the African continent, took a stand against trophy hunting and urged lawmakers to ban imports. “Trophy hunting stands out among the worst forms of wildlife exploitation and is neither ethical nor sustainable. In the face of the man-made global biodiversity crisis, it is unacceptable that exploitation of wildlife simply for acquiring a hunting trophy is still permitted and that trophies can still be legally imported. It is high time that governments end this detrimental practice” Mona Schweizer, Ph.D., from Pro Wildlife said. The statistics point to a huge ongoing crisis in the field of animal conser

One for the Road Pachydermia The fading symbol of Africa To the wide world, the elephant is the symbol of Africa. Hunters might hold out for the lion, and the greater kudu has it advocates, but ask the average person what animal he thinks of when you mention Africa and the answer will almost always be “the elephant.” This fact is important when you consider the coverage given to game conservation generally by the mainstream media. The mountain nyala may be seriously endangered, or the eastern bongo, or giant sable, but mention those to the average journalist—or, more to the point, the average editor—and you will likely get nothing more than a strange look. Every couple of years, The Economist, London’s highly respected international news magazine, remembers the elephant and sends someone to take a look at its status.

Africké muzeum lovu Dr. Emila Holuba Mezi významné myslivecké památky v ČR je zařazeno Africké muzeum Dr. Emila Holuba. Holice jsou rodištěm našeho nejznámějšího cestovatele Dr. Emila Holuba. V roce 1966 postavili místní obyvatelé svému slavnému rodákovi památník, jako projev úcty a obdivu. Základem sbírek se stal dar Růženy Holubové, manželky Dr. Emila Holuba. Ta věnovala Holicím vybavení manželovy vídeňské pracovny, dále sbírku knih a mnoho dalších exponátů, které Dr. Holub přivezl z Afriky. Památník Dr. Emila Holuba fungoval v nezměněné podobě až do konce roku 2010. Poté byl uzavřen a proběhla v něm celková rekonstrukce. Autorem nové expozice Afrického muzea Dr. Emila Holuba je Arch. David Vávra. Život a cesty Dr. Emila Holuba jsou v ní přiblíženy daleko podrobnějí, své místo v ní má i cestavetlova manželka Růžena Holubová. Zcela novým prvkem je krátký životopissný film o Dr. Holubovi z dílny Milana Šteindlera. Lákadlem jsou bezesporu Viktoriiny vodopády v interaktivním prostře
