Just a few days ago 5 Rangers for African Parks were killed in Benin defending a NP they have there. | |||

I took more American clients to Burkina than anyone else. Sadly those days are over now. The camp i worked with was the first to be burnt by the Jihadists after which they burnt every other camp in BF. The insurgency then spread to Benin, I had planned to go year before and a few days before I went they killed a frenchman the then head of anti poaching for W Park. Cameroon remains the last place to hunt W.African big game. Aside from LD Eland, they have all the species as was found in Burkina and Benin. We arrange hunts in Cameroon for all the Savannah species.

It’s interesting that Boko Haram has been able to operate in BF and Benin without being wiped out. When I was in Douala in February, there was a U.S. Army Ranger in the lobby of the Starland Hotel, so I started talking with him. He asked what I was doing in Cameroon and I replied that I was hunting up north. He replied lied “Us too”. That caught me by surprise. I later found out that the U.S. has some sort of base outside Garoua. My guess is they are there to monitor and limit the spread of Boko Haram eastward, but that’s just a guess. Cameroon has a formidable military of their own, thankfully; so perhaps they’re a bit more than Boko Haram can take on. | |||

All has gone to hell since the French army pulled out of the entire Sahel region. The superannuated Cameroonian president has so far held things together there, but he will not live forever. What a shame. Mike Wilderness is my cathedral, and hunting is my prayer. | |||

I make no claims as to being a geo-political genius, but it has always seems to me, that the area's of tension, conflict and general skulduggery, tend to be near the Equator. It is generally true in South America as well. Southern Africa certainly has its issues but there never seems to be periods of relative calm in these countries discussed. CAR, Sudan, Chad, Somalia all seem to be in a constant state of upheaval. The South American Countries that tend to have historical instability, are mostly all in the north part of the continent, on or close to the Equator. I dunno, just seems like it to me.

Maybe it’s because communists and jihadists like warm weather? Mike Wilderness is my cathedral, and hunting is my prayer. | |||

That’s what I heard also when I was there in March, The Outfitter I went with hired them to come in and clean up the gold miners on the Faro River, which they did in a couple of days, they were pretty impressive in their uniforms and had a belt fed rifle in the back of a pick up. | |||
