Wildlife Pursuits in MANOUBA: Laws and Legislation, Hunting Seasons and Demographics Landscape Attributes and Natural Layout in Manouba Manouba, positioned just west of Tunis, is a region marked by its semi-urban sprawl interwoven with agricultural fields, rolling hills, and small woodland pockets. While it is one of Tunisia’s more developed governorates, its rural zones—particularly around Tebourba, El Battan, and Djedeida—offer suitable environments for controlled hunting. Olive plantations, wheat fields, and river valleys shape the region’s ecological diversity, attracting certain species of game, especially in the cooler months. Though not known for dense forests or wild expanses, Manouba’s fragmented rural zones create a patchwork of viable habitats that support small and medium game species in sustainable numbers. Hunter Distribution and Local Involvement in Manouba Region The hunting community in Manouba is smaller than in Tunisia’s northern or interior regions, due in part

Can you believe Christmas is just a week away? We all get stuck in a rut sometimes. Last night listening to our insanely talented friend Traci Sepkovic/@tlsepkovic, a guest on the @wildlifeconversationspodcast, she talked about just that. Sometimes we feel unlimited creativity and other times we just hit a wall and no matter how bad we want to be out with camera sometimes it's good just to set it down for a while, recenter and get back at it. Todays frames are some that lend to being way more creative than just always using the "good light". Yes we all love a perfectly subject from the the front or coming at us straight into the lens but the older I get and the more I shoot I would rather shoot into the light looking for the truly special moments. My wife and I love anytime we get with wildlife, even without camera in the harsh light parts of the day just being out together is what it's all about, but when the light hits just right it is truly incredible what this planet can create.

Cambodia Wildlife Travelers to Cambodia may find that although Cambodia is not primarily a wildlife viewing destination, some isolated pockets of forest may offer some of the best opportunities for wildlife spotting in all of SE Asia. Cambodia’s wildlife diversity is at critically low levels due to deforestation and habitat destruction. It is home to about 16 globally endangered species and 2 critically endangered species. Some larger mammal species found here are dholes, elephants, deer, panthers, bears, tigers, cormorants, cranes, crocodile, and wild water buffalo. Many organizations are working together to try and protect Cambodia’s remaining wildlife diversity.

Evolution of hunting laws and wildlife conservation/management Upon what concepts are hunting policies and laws based? Wildlife management and hunting policies have evolved over time, based largely on the “public trust doctrine,” which regards wildlife as held in the public trust and managed by scientifically based regulations. During the last century, sportsmen-conservationists demanded that their government put in place agencies, institutions, laws and regulations to conserve wildlife on behalf of the citizens. As part of that demand, sportsmen/conservationists advocated ethics and self policing by any and all who partake of America’s wild bounty. The laws, rules and regulations governing hunting form a framework for a system that is designed to provide surpluses of certain species of wildlife for hunting and fishing, revenue from which funds the conservation of all wildlife, including species that aren’t hunted. This system provides the agility for wildlife managers to respond to c

When it rains, it pours: Bangladesh wildlife trade booms during monsoon The illegal wildlife trade in Bangladesh increases during the wet season due to a shortage of livelihoods and poor surveillance, a study has found. Killing and trading wildlife has been illegal in Bangladesh since 2012, but a culture of hunting means the problem still persists, wildlife officials say. Wildlife markets trade in animals and parts from species such as tigers and crocodiles, with the more lucrative end of the trade thriving in areas with a weak law enforcement presence and close proximity to a seaport or airport. Efforts to tackle the trade are limited by law enforcement restrictions, with the Wildlife Crime Control Unit (WCCU) lacking the authority to arrest suspects and reliant on local agencies for investigations and legal action. DHAKA — It’s the monsoon season in Bangladesh, where the annual rains are both a boon for farmers and a worry for many living in flood-prone areas. For the country’s wild
