At least today I didn’t find any new carcasses. But then I took a different route heading west down to the Chiredzi River. It’s just the most magical drive down there in the Acacia woodlands. But in the early hours things are always pretty quiet along the river although I did see this giraffe bull heading down to drink. A few elephant were a ways off feeding in the mopanie woodlands where they get most of their sustenance at this time of year. Just before heading back to hangar duty I did my rounds on Banyini and in the cool weather, this really handsome White Rhino bull was drinking at the pan before sauntering off south. And just as I was about to start work, a troop of baboon crossed the airstrip right next to my hangar. Those little guys riding on their mom’s backs sure have it good. They’re always so comical. Pity my mom’s back was never that comfortable AND fun! adventure, africa, african, animal, animal kingdom, animals, baboon, blog, blogumentary, documentary, ecotraining, education, elephant, elephants, experience, experience adventure, flickr, giraffe, GLTP, gonarezhou, Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park, malilangwe, Malilangwe narrowcasting, mashable, narrowcasting, Open Content Alliance, pamushana, peace parks, photo, photos, podcasting, teach, video, white rhino, wildcast, wildcasting, wilderness, wildlife, wildlife documentary, youtube, zimbabwe

Tourism crash threatens big cats in Kenya -- Climate change affects birds in Alaska -- Bonn gets ready for international biodiversity conference -- these stories and more in this edition of Living Planet. Tune in via the live-stream or subscribe to the program as a podcast. Send your comments and questions to features@dw-world.de. Tourism Crash Threatens Big Cats in Kenya Big cats living in Kenya's Maasai Mara National Park are being threatened by a collapse in revenues from wildlife tourism. The Mara Conservancy says tourists have been staying away since the violence following last year's disputed election.The world-famous Maasai Mara National Park is in a state of crisis. Following the post-election violence in the country earlier this year tourists have been giving Kenya a wide berth and gate receipts into the Mara are down eighty percent. Without its major source of revenue, the Mara Conservancy, which manages a part of the reserve, is having to cut back its operations, leaving the door wide open to poachers. Living Planet joins the rangers on patrol. Report: Richard LoughStudying Seabirds in the Beaufort Sea, North of Alaska During a trip to the Arctic region of Alaska, Living Planet host Irene Quaile spoke to ornithologist George Divoky who studies black guillemots on Cooper Island in the Arctic Beaufort Sea about how they're affected by climate change.Irene has been writing a blog, which is continuing with news and views about climate change and Alaskan pictures and interviews. She was visiting the region with seven young "climate ambassadors" witnessing the impact of climate change first hand and talking to people directly affected by it. Living Planet will be introducing you to the ambassadors, from seven different European countries, and bringing you in-depth reports on what they saw and heard in Alaska here on Living Planet in the coming weeks. Studying seabirds in changing climate George Divoky is an ornithologist from the Institute of Arctic Biology at the University of Fairbanks, in Alaska. George was talking to the Climate Change College ambassadors about his work observing a colony of black guillemots, a type of seabird, on Cooper Island, a remote and otherwise uninhabited island in the Arctic Beaufort Sea, around 35 miles north of Barrow, the northernmost settlement in the US. Over the past 33 years, George’s bird watching project has turned into an observation of climate change at its most dramatic. Deutsche Welle's Irene Quaile met him at the Barrow Arctic Science Consortium. Interview: Irene QuaileBiodiversity Series (6): the City of Bonn Between May 19th and 30th, the city of Bonn is hosting the 9th Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD/COP9). But what is the city's own record when it comes to preserving biodiversity?We take a look at how the city of Bonn is getting ready for the major international conference here next week that will focus on how to halt the current rate of loss of biodiversity. Bonn was once Germany’s capital until parliament was moved to Berlin after the fall of the Berlin wall. Bonn still remains an administrative center and has become particularly active in hosting and encouraging international cooperation in the area of environment and sustainable development. Bonn -- a city of diversity? What is the city’s record, however, when it comes to preserving biodiversity? Is Bonn even suited to host a conference on biological diversity at all? Living Planet takes a trip to Bonn’s education facility "House of Nature" to find out what events will be taking place in Bonn during the conference, and what some of the long-term projects in the city are.Report: Alice Keath
