Lisbeth,

I was reading some stuff at Sanparks about the Tuskers and their procedures.
Many contradictions in what they say and what they do

just a few:
They will NOT name old Tuskers anymore they said. But actually they named a few very old tuskers. We have them on the site since 2007/2008/2009.

They say they don't allow locations but if you read their stuff you do know where the tuskers are. If you say north and far north and on their site if you click on a name you can read what area they live. It's all so stupid and not organized. Summary ... it's not professional and a chaos.


To my opinion Sanparks had the idea the HAD to do something. Looking at their presentations with errors, wrong pictures and several really bad photo's it is a shame fot this organization.
They say they have many professionals in their team , but actually all is related to one person in Letaba and she makes a mess of it. It's NO respect to the Tuskers but the opposite.

I can say much more but I don't.

Latest about Mavatsani , he looks very old today, I am not an expert but estimate he is between 55 and 60 years old now.

There are 20 pages, but only 10 elephants 0*\

I think this whole business of trying to "hide" their locations is a bit silly, as they travel far and wide? But my opinion only. Your website also names them after places where they were found anyway, aat? --00--

Maybe, but Aat never said that he wouldn't and never asked anybody not to say so! :twisted:
