Rupert Fothergill : Bridging a Conservation Era – Keith Meadows

R600.00

“Rupert Fothergill was an outstanding example of a breed of men who just got on with doing an honest constructive job, accepting as out of their control the maneuvering and manipulating of power hungry politicians that have plagued mankind for centuries. He was unfettered by academic superiors from the seat of higher learning. He had many unpleasant tasks to carry out, such as the shooting of wounded and trouble making elephants, lions and buffalos. Someone had to do these tasks…Many of the problems Rupert had to solve were caused by the policies of big companies ‘developing’ the country. There was a strange lack of general understanding of wildlife, and its rightful place in a community.”
