Igno Laitayok || The Community Manager of Enduimet WMA
Episode 474
Continuing our miniseries on the Enduimet elephant controversy out of Tanzania, Robbie gets some time with Igno Laitayok, the Community Manager for the Enduimet Wildlife Management Area. Over the last 8 months two big tuskers have been hunted in Enduimet. In this conversation Robbie asks the following:
- The basis of Enduimet, its geography, population size.
- The point of view of the people on the ground around wildlife
- Ecotourism vs. hunting tourism
- The money associated with tourism in the WMA
- Whether hunting has any value to the WMA and its people
Voices still to be heard in the mini-series on this elephant controversy include Dr. Edward Kohi, Director of Research, Tanzanian Ministry of Wildlife, Forestry and Tourism, Michel Mantheakis, Chairperson of TAHOA, and Richard Bonham, Co-Founder of Big Life, and others, unconfirmed as yet, that are staunchly against hunting these elephants
