I have some questions about Africa

A seven year old with questions about Africa interviews Margrit Harris with Nikela. Listen to the interview… “I have some questions about Africa.” Our seven year old granddaughter said as we were sitting around the farm table. All three of these grandchildren are eager to find ways they can help us save African wildlife. During our last visit they created a dynamic Lego scene depicting Nikela and our mission, which Russ turned into a video of course. As probably most children would, they enjoy helping with videos the most. One of them loves to sit next to me while I’m putting…

Even young kids can get involved in wildlife conservation, this group decided to save baby monkeys. I love pleasant surprises like this in my inbox! Images of children selling lemonade to help save African Wildlife. When I asked the kids which wild animals they’d like to help, after learning about the baby vervet monkeys at Silke’s Bambelela Primate Rescue and Rehabilitation Center, it was unanimous… They wanted to help save baby vervet monkeys. Some children spend their allowance on the newest lego set or latest game for their Xbox. However, a select few already have hearts of gold and think of…

Education of even the lowliest works, as this story of a homeless boy and a baby Vervet monkey testify. Carol Booth with Monkey Helpline in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa shared this heartwarming story with us via Facebook and we had to post it here for you. Education at whatever level it happens can never be a waste of time and resources. So it was today… In quick succession we received three phone calls from motorists who saw a teenage boy holding a baby monkey at the 45th Cutting traffic light intersection in Sherwood, Durban. I asked the first caller, “Is…

Margie Kolver of ‘One More Generation’ mentors kids saving Rhino. “Not again… where’s my sock?” In my sleepy state I see it circling Saturn with my lost luggage. Then I remember. Trudging to the garden I discover the white toe sticking out of the dirt. Staying with our friend Margie Kolver in Johannesburg has its hazards one of which is her cute little thief dog Milu. Margie’s passion for mischievous animals includes protecting all wildlife especially the Rhino, the unfortunate target for poaching syndicates who slaughter these beautiful beasts merely for their horns. As the South African Chairperson for ‘One…

Most Unlikely Trophy Hunting Victims, Children

The next generation will pay the price as trophy, canned and sport hunting are becoming increasingly more bizarre with hunters engaging children at earlier ages. Do we need ratings for family activities? In the USA there are ratings for movies, games and television shows. These ratings are to safeguard children from excessive and premature adult content, such as violence, language and sex. Responsible parents pay attention to these when they make decisions about what’s appropriate for their children to watch and play. As children mature they are able to monitor themselves… or at least know when they are knowingly crossing…
