The Namibian (Windhoek)
9 September 2008
OVER the past few weeks I have watched in amazement the escalating media frenzy, sensational headlines and misinformation over the Ministry of Environment and Tourism's issuing of trophy-hunting permits for six elephants to conservancies in Namibia's northwest.

Firstly to call Garth a wanker can only come from the elephant whisperer himself. Get someone to read and interpret Garth's comments again and see if you could do better. What have you done for conservation in this country or for the community for that matter. Chasing young girls is not conservation...asshole!
Brilliant Garth- "but if they are to expand their range beyond our national parks the cost to the people living there must be taken into account."
It is exactly the opposite- we have destroyed their ranges and relegated them to a few small parks, while we 'two-leggers' continue to expand and crowd them out... perhaps we should pay rent to them: do not reproduce if you cannot afford to live in their backyard. Nice try wanker.
