Are doing to protect an endangered species. The african wild dogs are extremely successful hunters that kill rate chases around eighty percent that is far more than lions for example the pack animals a key to culling herbivore populations which helps keep the ecosystem balanced. But their own distress at wild dogs used to be a common sight in africas savannahs in the mid Twentieth Century there were around tough a million of them. But their range has grown more and more limited and their numbers have been decimated. In this weeks global ideas we head to southeast in zimbabwe where our reporter yoakum schneider visited the subway river valley to meet conservationists working to give these unique animals a future. Its seconds. As the day cools down and life slowly returns to the bush in southeast zimbabwe. Leaving the african wild dogs spent the hottest part of the day sleeping in the shade. Now in the Late Afternoon past comes together ready to go out hunting. The perfect time for just a cold water meyer to check up on the pack she had set up a conservation project for wild dogs in the southern valley conservancy its a protected area that covers three thousand square kilometers she spent years working with these animals. And this is our first of pack and weve called them that because as you can see that got beautiful and very distinct and colorful markings and they also happened to be one of the biggest packs in the conservancy so there are body live i dont know started off the dating season or the year twelve they had fourteen puppies but were down to seven now and theyre also is a very relaxing the beach at it back as you can see so fantastic for us for working with them and for munching and research purposes. While dogs are among the most endangered carnivores in africa and with population numbers of around seven thousand at most the Survey Valley conservancy provides a large area for them to roam freely which is exactly what they need to survive. Impala antelopes are their first choice of prey. They are incredibly social pack animals so and just the way that they interact with each other the way they take care of each other where they take care of the puppies or pack members pull together to look after each other and very different from other social convoys for example lion when wild dogs either kill the adults or let the pepi see first they will look after the injured they will take me back to the injured the survey conservancy was originally formed from an amalgamation of large private ranches that finances itself through tourism and controlled sustainable hunting this means endangered species are protected and the area isnt sacrificed for farmland. Outside the conservancy little of the original bush remains the local population has grown and more and more land has gone over to farming leading to increased contact between wildlife and humans. The conservationists now work closely with local communities to protect the animals want to do good morning time victor chibuye a teaches School Students about how the wild animals live. Yet. He and his team visit the schools three times a year. Many of the children are fascinated the local villagers often have a very different take on how to deal with the wildlife in their area if they could just knowingly x. This guy i dont think when they did the conservancy use. The name of the chief the my way if the. Company did to us but if the it before was the nomadic you would be in for. The meat so you think that the knowledge and the upbringing you know this end of it when theres no we have to quit seized with it even the look lets kind of was it was the priest species as. You need. To. Actually buy a teaches the children about the food chain and explains what happens when once. Shes dies out completely the idea is to help the children see the importance of conservation was no further woods example i think its great to learn about protecting the animals no one i. Dont know i know that if pictures come i need to report it to the police or my teachers will read them. The wildcard project also finances books and teaching materials and even pays for to wish in fees for some of the students this School Started working with the conservationists and twenty thirteen had mastered early and when your says a lot has changed since then you actually see that even if you think it is flat out they will tell you that. Doesnt relate to these things they see music leave this in its good to leave because its clearly even put in for the it was. The school we have been near but it kid you are is that for put. Back in the conservancy the pack are hunting. Close to a kill. But this world of beast is a little too big for them still it provides a good sparring partner for the younger dogs to hone their hunting skills. So after a little excitement predators and potential prey decide to go their separate ways. Thanks but african wild dogs are themselves exposed to danger even inside the park as we discover the next day ranger king could several is out on patrol when a colleague contacts him theyre going to go closer for work the dog dared to control my snake. The ranger immediately heads to the scene where jessica water myrick is waiting for him it soon becomes clear the situation is even worse than they thought so we got a report this morning that there were two dogs it reported was they were still fighting the was so we rushed just soon as possible and got it within twenty minutes of the report but unfortunately when we got to the dogs had already struggled themselves and suffocated. Its a senseless killing the dogs werent even the target of the poachers. They set the wire trap to catch antelopes the dogs tried to free themselves by biting through the wire but the copper was too tough. Worse still its the alpha male thats been killed along with another adult dog the best hunters in the pack. For the next step will be for our scouts to work with some of the scouts and to move to this area nonsweet and make sure we can pick up as many of these was as possible ideally you pick the was up before this happens. The wire is almost invisible in the dense bush and the area is vast but the rangers managed to find around fifty wire traps dogs all unique to africa we dont find them anywhere else and as conservation is working in africa we have a duty to to protect them to make sure they stay for future generations and they are completely genetically distinct species and once theyve gone theyre gone. The rest of the pack will stick together until the juveniles are fully grown fortunately the alpha female has survived unscathed otherwise the pack would have broken up but with her mate now gone hopes of gaining a new litter of puppies this year now look slam. Almost half of the Australian Land mass is now devoted to agriculture some of the territory is used to raise grain but much more is given over to light stock nearly eighty percent of the countrys Agricultural Products are sold abroad in two thousand and seventeen harvests were particularly good then a drought in two thousand and eighteen through the sector into a tailspin still production continues to rise but only large scale farms are raking in substantial profits in the last thirty years around forty percent of australias Small Farmers have given up thats had enough and devastating effect on them and their communities. Steve jurman is a farmer and twice hes considered committing suicide. Just getting through the days is a big challenge. The family run farm is now in its fourth generation but its no longer making a profit and is slowly being crushed by dent. Steves father and grandfather also how to up some downs. But the situation has never been worse than it is now. And that hurts his pride. I dont want to go because the only truth would want to go out its like you very grimy in my name very hard to you know. It doesnt mean all you know. But. If. The person cows milk has dropped by nearly twenty percent in the last three years and then came a drought. Steve had to slaughter fifty seven carps within four months because he couldnt afford to feed them. He was going to take his own. I but something stopped him. Probably. Go up and sighing you know where are you dead because my mother had found a letter or left from the very sign that i was coming home. And the oil for me. Sort of what pulled me up a little bit. Married guy is a fifty six year old widow. Husband committed suicide in late twentys sixteen. She says james was a strong man with a zest for life but even with her salary working as a nurse they couldnt make ends meet when. Hed been a pharmacist he was fifteen and we were making the decision of what we had made the decision to sell the farm because we were going back before the banks come and said get out weve started to get out before that happened. It was a rational decision but her husband couldnt cope with it emotionally james hung to himself. Its a lost all its our life we live in brief and i love it actually. To the point of not looking after themselves. Mary is convinced that if Small Farmers were able to earn more at the job her husband might still be alive farmers in australia dont receive any subsidies. The number of farmers has fallen by forty percent in the last thirty years it was so busy just trying to survive on our own farms we dont often get a chance to get together. And support each other and and go up against these big multinationals or whatever and so i really need to be paid for what were doing. Mary managed to lease the farm shes very open about telling james the story almost everyone knows farmers who suffer from depression and she says they need to talk more about the strain never. Getting promised to do it is a whole different kettle of fish because all farmers are very stoic they tend to carry on just doing what they need to do and tough and have a house. Martin whos been a farmer and social worker for more than thirty years he says you need to appreciate the nice moments like heading out to the sheep on a sunny morning with droughts immense financial pressure and globalisation australian farmers have a lot to worry about. Ok. In rural areas the suicide rate is at least twice as high as in the city says martin. Depression is common. He says people like him are in the best position to help other social workers who want farmers themselves dont understand the problems they have. Come from a larger town or city and come with intentions but real cases are just do not get it done get. And thats thats very. Become disappointed and the people who are there helping steve. Martin helps to develop raise farm a shop its a convenient place in the area to meet the farmers and find out who needs help. He. Said he said. In the feed dials all those first backtrack to parts. Sometimes its just a chat sometimes he arranges for them to meet doctors or Financial Experts in the city if you have pain day in melbourne or sydney youre more luck to be picked up more quickly through reach a services or Maternal Health whereas if youve got that in Alice Springs or if you go to places of work to present to the kitchen which is middle of nowhere take a break you know youve got to talk to somebody months. Back on steves farm its not only financial problems that are weighing you down hes also had to stay in hospital and is trying to get through a broken marriage. But steve cant see any alternative for himself other than to carry on farming his two daughters have to help out milking the cows before and after school. How do they deal with the situation. Because. Really. I dont i just have time for. My. Time. Steve now has a therapist in the city he calls when he cant. He still somehow hypes this itll all work out. The bank but i dont think truth here in st pauls is sure if im. If you know thats what i what the what the outcome is. Always but just got a home for me. When steve jurman feels down now he thinks about his two daughters and that everything isnt always a story because it might at times seem. One of our reporters discovered a tasty snack on tenor reef and its home graeme to. The largest of the Canary Islands ten a reef was formed by the catholic activity several million years ago. The island is a paradise for people whod love potatoes. For a child volcanic soil and a mild climate year round they thrive here. We stumbled on the chips here in china reach capital santa cruz everything here revolves around the buffet fried version of the potato the snack shop is run by the canary an italian couple gin you stick it every day in march. So who came up with the name i said what you needed in mind it was my husbands idea. We were looking for a name and of course it had to have something to do with potatoes chips are not chips see in the end. See one out. To see. There are nearly fifty different varieties of potato in the canaries the tuber was first domesticated around thirteen thousand years ago in south america and they were introduced to europe after the spanish conquests there are ten to reef potatoes are staple might there are virtually no dishes on teneriffe that are not served with potatoes if theyre boiled roasted fried and baked potatoes are always part of the equation him by. The french fries here are never frozen like in many restaurants but cut fresh every day. Fresh Vegetable Oil is also important say the locals but which potatoes make the best fries. But it has to be a really yellow potato that doesnt contain too much starch. Otherwise it will still be raw inside when its crispy outside. But then who cant keep up with. The chips are available with a wide variety of sauces. Thats not here to pick up but the thousands make all the difference were the only ones on the island with twenty six of them. There are different kinds of million nice catch up. Theres even a chocolate sauce so what do the customers love most about gypsy. They take the dish to a whole new level its a quality product if you go somewhere else the potatoes just arent as good or they use frozen fries and sometimes you just feel like having fresh ones like these. So if youre in the mood for a deliciously fried potato dish with amazing sauces you should definitely stop by ship she is also easy on your wallet a meal deal costs between four and six euros. According to the world tell. Around thirty six Million People around the world are completely blind and two hundred seventeen million have moderate to severe visual impairment which makes it very difficult to participate in society in developing countries estimates suggest up to ninety percent of blind children dont receive an education and that eighty percent of blind adults are unemployed so it can be life changing when the visually impaired a given opportunities. They walk to their final rehearsal. Tonight these musicians are playing at minutes or university in the nile delta it will be their fifth concert in four weeks. To musicians dont use music stands or sheet music. That conductor walks around checking choosing as once the concert begins the orchestra will be leading themselves. To have the most of a stop when we start working on a pace we give ourselves plenty of time the women have to integrate each note into their memory they dont have a classical score in front of them they have to learn the entire thing by heart and for some pieces thats a lot easier. To music school lies in the heliopolis district of cairo egypt called light and hope its mission is to offer visually impaired girls new opportunities the school has its fourth generation of students nearly one hundred girls live learn and play music here. Now well established the school was a daring venture when it was founded in one thousand nine hundred eighty one when zainab kelly joined blind people were often sidelined in society. Today the fifty seven year old is a coach and confidant to the young girls. Well when i got my place at school my life was really tough everyone who trains here has a Bright Future ahead of. My to learn an instrument without eyesight requires not only talent but also insurance and an empathetic teacher. Saying that kelly discovered her love for the oboe at twelve and then learned to read braille musical notation. Years later she won her place in the orchestra the crowning achievement. Today she teaches other girls because she wants to give back to the school. It is our duty to teach the young generations learn from one another i would be very proud if one of my students here were able to make it into the orchestra three of them have managed so far they let the focus but music is by no means everything here the students learn other subjects too including english. English as she massacre a second great passion after the violin she demands discipline and punctuality from his students. Without english she tells them you are absolutely helpless in foreign countries. Oh yes. I must we have had because its just im as a child i loved languages i wanted to make friends abroad and learn about other cultures soffit in. The orchestras program is demanding it includes both classical and popular music from around the world. The final dress rehearsal there is still work to be done. These are long days for the musicians they start at five am and finish at nine at night they have to study play teach but they say theres nowhere else that rotherby. The land of the evil of. I feel very proud to be kind of so i want to live when i play music i feel like im in another world im no longer on earth. I forget everything but the problem is that. Im one with myself in the world i love her i like to have been eyes that lies i feel. And yet its a world under threat the girls lodgings and lessons are free of charge but its not clear how long that will continue donations have decreased in recent years. But theres little thought of that on the night of the concert with seconds to go the conductor hands over the stage the musicians. Happy and after a total of fourteen pieces many are visibly moved. And a lot will learn because we talk i wasnt expecting them to play so well i am so impressed by the concert and the musicians its amazing wonderful i wish them all success and lots of luck i came here to get them give them and then im going with the because the. And for this orchestra that is what its all about inspiring others through music and redefining its possible. Who cares about the flower industrys destructive impacts i do. To cannes about global l.
