I just watched Ivan Carter in W.A.R. what happened to him?

I heard he moved to the Bahamas. If so, then I hope he and his are safe.

Ivan now lives in South Africa. He and his foundation are still working hard on several projects (we were sat one of his projects in the Congo up until yesterday). His home in the Bahamas received very minor damage to roof and he has a new show starting very soon, info will be coming out shortly.

Good to hear he’s still at it. He’s a good dude.

He and his foundation post regularly on Facebook.

Glad to hear. Thanks you Mr. Evans.

Hes always working on his foundation in MOZAMBIQUE ,with Dick Cabelas ,the DSC ,Richard Cheatham and several good people ,thay are doing a magnificient work on Coservation specialy lion conservation .You can follow his work on fb on ZAMBEZE DELTA CONSERVATION AND ANTIPOACHING .

He's very much on the move these days, different places, different projects. Good use for FB is to follow him. Some really good material.

Ivan will be speaking at the DSC monthly meeting in October for any of you who are in the North Texas area. Link below has more information.

DSC October Monthly Meeting

That's great!!!

I’ve always really liked Ivan’s different programs, but I’ve always thought he was a little too nonchalant around elephants. While 95% of elephants he is able to correctly read their body language, it’s the 5% of elephants that are either cheeky or downright nasty that may severely harm him. When I see him turn his back on an elephant at under 25 yards, I hold my breathe.

Bud, I always said that, it smelled like circus, what he was doing back then. Bit silly and somewhat irresponsible, but I get the fact that it was selling...

You can relax.
:-)

a.)
He "read" the animal before he is turning his back and watched them long bevor.

b.)
There are allways more than one guy witch see exactly what is going on. If (if!) the ele is coming, they will give him Ivan an signal.
(Of course, this will not showed in TV / Video then.)

Ivan is a great hunter, a great nature-conservist, a great man to watch and talk, I wish him only the best.

More than one “expert” has been killed by becoming a little too calvalier with elephants.

Even those with decades of experience.

Just saying.

I bet they don't show the ones where everyone gets the hell out of the way.

Correct.

The new show starts 10/1. It is a conservation related show that shows how hunters dollars are used in conservation.

I actually saw one a very long time ago (wasn’t a hunting show) where Ivan was taking a few people up close. One of the ladies (I actually met her much later) kind of panicked and started to run off and a guy grabbed her and pulled her back close to the group while Ivan did his rifle -lift thing and stopped the bull. Was kinda cool.

His new show is being advertised on the Outdoor Channel. It looks very much like Carter's War which is a good thing.

The commercial appears to focus a lot on animal repopulations (releases).

Just viewed WILDLIFE HEROS with Ivan Carter on The OUTDOOR Channel. This episode was on management of Bison in Montana and Utah, heli darting, blood draws, various other health considerations and tracking collars on 1 of each 10 darted or netted.
Great Show/photography and typical action of Ivan's shows.
Well Done, IVAN!!
Cheers,

Yes, Ivan’s new show is on the Outdoor Channel. It points out the benefits of hunters conservation dollars.

I have a summary video clip from the show that is about a minute and a half long. If anyone can post this, please contact me . I’ll send it.

Ivan is also very heavily involved in the Ivan Carter Wildlife Conservation Alliance. The ICWCA is involved with several projects across Africa. The move of the 24 lions was an ICWCA project. The anti-poaching project in Kruger has drastically reduced the poaching there. The ICWCA has a scientist in the ZDS area in Mozambique doing research. The ICWCA also helps fund the anti-poaching there. Lwiro chimpanzee reserve in the Congo is another project. There are several projects all of which have been successful.

Ivan is a busy man.
