The word game has its origin in colonial times when wild game
was being hunted. Hunting was considered a game. Hunting for
“game”. Nowadays, it is impossible to keep track of the number
of animals killed by poachers in Africa.
The shrinking population of this marvelous wildlife is a
frightening prospect.
As if this were not enough the global warming causes additional
pressure on these regions. Many species will face extinction in
the short run as a result of which the current “Game drives”
might actually become a thing of the past...
