ʻO nā Rangers Pāʻani ʻApelika: nā hoa lawaiʻa mālama kī nui i ke koʻikoʻi

ʻO Wildlife ke alakaʻi mākaʻikaʻi alakaʻi a me ke kumu o ka loaʻa kālā mākaʻikaʻi ma ʻApelika ʻē aʻe ma mua o ka hoʻoilina waiwai a me ka moʻomeheu waiwai i hāʻawi ʻia i ka ʻāina.

Hoʻoulu nā safaris kiʻi kiʻi holoholona holoholona i nā miliona o ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi mai ʻEulopa, ʻAmelika a me ʻAsia e kipa aku i kēia ʻāina nui e hoʻolilo i ko lākou mau lā nui i nā wahi pale holoholona lōhiu.

ʻOiai nā waiwai waiwai holoholona nui, ke kūʻē nei ʻo ʻApelika i nā pilikia ʻaihue i loaʻa i kēia manawa, hoʻonāukiuki i ka mālama ʻana i nā holoholona hihi me ka hoʻāʻo ʻana ma kahi e hopu ai i kēia kūlana. Ke hana pū nei nā aupuni ʻApelika me nā holoholona hihiu a me nā hui mālama mālama kūlohelohe i kēia manawa e hoʻopakele i ka holoholona hihiu ʻApelika mai ka make ʻana, ʻo ka hapanui o nā lāhui ʻaneʻane make.

ʻO nā mea mālama holoholona ʻāhiu ma ʻApelika nā hoa mālama helu ʻekahi i hana i ko lākou ola e pale aku i nā mea hihiu mai nā pilikia kanaka, akā e hana nei i ka makaʻu mai nā kānaka a me nā holoholona hihiu a lākou i hana ai e pale aku.

Ke kū nei nā luna i nā kaomi psychological he nui i alakaʻi ʻia i nā hopena olakino koʻikoʻi koʻikoʻi. Hoʻokomo pinepine ʻia lākou i nā paio kolohe ma loko a ma waho o kā lākou hana.

ʻIke ka hapa nui o ko lākou mau ʻohana i ko lākou mau ʻohana ma kahi o hoʻokahi manawa i ka makahiki, e hoʻonāukiuki ana i ka pilina pilikino a me ke ʻano noʻonoʻo.

Ma Tanzania, no ka laʻana, ua hoʻomake ʻia kahi alakaʻi kaiāulu e kahi mea ʻaihue ʻino ʻia i ka hoʻāʻo ʻana e pale aku i ka lawaiʻa ʻana i ka Tarangire National Park, kahi mākaʻikaʻi holoholona hihiu kaulana ma ka ʻākau o Tanzania.

ʻO ke alakaʻi kauhale ʻo Mr. Faustine Sanka i ʻoki ʻia kona poʻo e kahi mea ʻaihue ʻino ʻia nāna i hoʻopau i ke ola o ke alakaʻi kaiāulu kokoke i ka pā i Pepeluali o kēia makahiki.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ka mākaʻi ʻo ka luku hoʻomāinoino ʻana i ka luna o ke kauhale, ʻo Mr. Faustine Sanka i hana ʻia e hoʻonāukiuki wale ai i ka anti-poaching ma Tarangire National Park kahi waiwai i nā ʻelepani a me nā mea ʻimi nui ʻē aʻe o ʻApelika.

Ua pepehi nā mea hoʻomake hewa i ke alakaʻi o ke kauhale ma ka ʻoki ʻana i kona poʻo me ka hoʻohana ʻana i kahi mea kaniʻoiʻoi. Ma hope o ka pepehi ʻana iā ia, ua wahī ʻia kona kino i loko o ka ʻeke ʻeke a ua waiho ʻia kāna motika āna e kaʻa ana ma laila, wahi a nā mākaʻi.

I ka lā mua o ʻApelila i ka makahiki i hala, ua luku ʻia nā lālā o ka pūʻali koa militia i lalo lima o nā mea holoholona a me ka mea kalaiwa ma Virunga National Park ma ka Lepupalika Kemokalaka o Kongo.

ʻO ia ka hoʻouka kaua ʻoi loa ma ka moʻolelo koko o Virunga, a ʻo ka mea hope loa i ka lālani lōʻihi o nā hanana weliweli kahi i lilo ai nā rangers i ko lākou ola e pale ana i ka hoʻoilina kūlohelohe o ka honua, i ʻōlelo ʻia e nā hōʻike mālama mālama.

ʻOiai ke ulu nei ka ʻike i ka nāwaliwali o nā mea aloha a charismatic o ka honua e like me nā ʻelepani a me nā rhino, ʻaʻohe ʻike iki a ʻaʻohe noiʻi e pili ana i ke koʻikoʻi a me nā hopena olakino noʻonoʻo no nā poʻe i hana ʻia me ka pale ʻana iā lākou.

"Pono mākou e mālama i ka poʻe e hana ana i kahi ʻokoʻa," wahi a Johan Jooste, ke poʻo o nā pūʻali anti-poaching ma South Africa National Parks (SANPark).

I ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ua mālama ʻia nā noiʻi hou aʻe e pili ana i ka maʻi post-traumatic stress (PTSD) i waena o nā ʻelepani e pili ana i kahi hanana ʻino ma mua o nā kiaʻi e pale aku nei iā lākou.

Ua ʻōlelo hou nā loea mālama mālama holoholona holoholona he 82 pakeneka o nā rangers ma ʻApelika i kū i kahi kūlana hoʻoweliweli i ka laina o ka hana.

Ua wehewehe lākou i nā kūlana hana paʻakikī, ka hoʻoneʻe kaiāulu, ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana mai ka ʻohana, nā lako pono ʻole a me ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa kūpono ʻole no nā mea he nui, uku haʻahaʻa a me ka mahalo iki e like me nā hoʻoweliweli ʻē aʻe e kū nei i mua o nā kiaʻi ʻApelika.

ʻO ka Thin Greenline Foundation, kahi hui ma Melbourne i hoʻolaʻa ʻia no ke kākoʻo ʻana i nā rangers, ke hōʻuluʻulu nei i ka ʻikepili e pili ana i ka make ʻana o nā ranger ma ka hana no 10 mau makahiki i hala.

Ma waena o 50 a me 70 pākēneka o nā holoholona i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i make i ʻApelika a me nā ʻāina ʻāhiu holoholona ʻē aʻe i hali ʻia e nā mea ʻai holoholona. ʻO ke koena pakeneka o nā make e pili ana i nā kūlana paʻakikī ke kū nei i mua i kēlā me kēia lā, e like me ka hana ʻana me nā holoholona weliweli a me nā wahi pilikia.

"E hiki nō iaʻu ke haʻi ma ke ʻano iā ʻoe e pili ana i ka make ʻana o 100 a 120 mau haneri a mākou i ʻike ai i kēlā me kēia makahiki," wahi a Sean Willmore, ka mea hoʻokumu o ka Thin Green Line Foundation a me ka pelekikena o ka International Ranger Federation, kahi hui waiwai ʻole e kiaʻi nei i nā hui ʻo 90 ranger ma ka honua holoʻokoʻa.

Manaʻo ʻo Willmore he hiki ke piʻi aʻe ka mea ma ka honua holoʻokoʻa, no ka nele o ka ʻikepili i nā hui he nui ma ʻAsia a me ka Hikina Waena.

ʻO nā Rangers ma Tanzania a me ke koena o East Africa ke kū nei i ka mea like, nā wahi hoʻoweliweli ola i ka wā e hana ana i ka pale ʻana i ka holoholona lōhiu, ka hapanui ma nā pāka aupuni, nā mālama pāʻani a me nā wahi mālama ʻia o ka nahele.

ʻO Selous Game Reserve, ko Aferika wahi nui o nā holoholona hihiu i pale ʻia ʻaʻole i pakele ʻia mai nā hanana ʻino e kū pono ana i ka poʻe kiaʻi. Hana lākou i nā ʻano ʻoʻoleʻa, ke hele nei i nā haneli mau kilomita i ka patrol e pale aku i nā holoholona hihiu, ka nui o nā ʻelepani.

Piha me ke koʻikoʻi a me nā pilikia psychological, alakaʻi nā rangers i kā lākou kuleana me ka hoʻokō piha e hōʻoia i ke ola o nā holoholona lōhiu ma Tanzania a me ʻApelika.

I Selous Game Reserve, noho mamao nā rangers mai ko lākou mau ʻohana; ʻae i nā pilikia ola e like me ka hoʻouka kaua ʻana a nā holoholona hihiu a me nā kahu holoholona mai nā kauhale kokoke mai, ka hapa nui o ka poʻe e luku nei i nā holoholona hihiu no ka ʻiʻo ulu.

ʻO nā kaiāulu e pili kokoke ana i kēia pāka (Selous) ʻaʻohe kumu o nā protein i ʻoi aku ma mua o ka ʻiʻo ulu. ʻAʻohe holoholona, ​​nā manu moa a me nā lawaiʻa ma kēia ʻāpana o ʻApelika, kahi kūlana e kipaku i nā kamaʻāina e ʻimi no ka ʻiʻo ulu.

ʻO nā Rangers i kēia pāka pū kekahi, e ʻeha pū i ka noʻonoʻo psychological mai ka hana. Ua haʻalele ka hapa nui o lākou i ko lākou mau ʻohana i nā kaona a i ʻole nā ​​wahi ʻē aʻe ma Tanzania e pale aku i nā holoholona lōhiu ma Selous Game Reserve.

“He noho wale kā kāua poʻe keiki. ʻAʻole maopopo iaʻu inā maikaʻi kaʻu mau keiki ma ke kula ʻaʻole paha. I kekahi manawa ʻaʻole mākou e kamaʻilio me ko mākou mau ʻohana ma kahi lōʻihi e noʻonoʻo nei i ka loaʻa ʻole o nā lawelawe kamaʻilio i kēia wahi ”, i haʻi ʻia e kahi mea eTN.

ʻO ke kamaʻilio kelepona paʻalima, i kēia manawa ke kumu alakaʻi o ka hoʻopili pilikino pilikino ma Tanzania, ʻaʻole i loaʻa hou i kekahi mau wahi o ka Selous Game Reserve ma muli o nā wahi ʻāina.

“ʻO nā mea āpau e like me ka ʻenemi ma aneʻi. Ke ʻimi nei nā kaiāulu kūloko i ka ʻiʻo pāʻani, ʻimi nā mea ʻai holoholona i nā pā no ka ʻoihana, keʻimi nei ke aupuni i ka loaʻa kālā, ke ʻimi nei nā mākaʻikaʻi i ka pale ʻana i nā pōā a me nā mea like like. ʻO ko mākou kua kēia ukana, ”i haʻi aku ai ka mea mālama i ka eTN.

Ke hoʻokele nei nā luna politika a me nā luna hoʻomalu holoholona i nā kaʻa posh ma nā kūlanakauhale nui e leʻaleʻa nei i ka nohona papa kiʻekiʻe, ka panakō ʻana i nā pilikia e kū nei nā rangers i kēia manawa.
