Why is it we never hear from local people regarding these so called problems? What business do you foreigners have in bad mouthing and demonizing these developing countries and their main agriculture industries which drive their economies? If I didn't know better I would think you racist people value the lives of field beasts over that of these black and brown children? Sure looks that way. Since traditional colonialism is is out, is this the new propaganda of Neo Colonist, using BS wildlife causes as a way to control these developing countries? Could their economic empowerment mean the end of your so called superiority in their countries? Just curious. I can see how you all can control the narrative and use Wildlife " crisis" to do so. I ask everyone watching these videos to critically think about the bigger picture. Maybe these folks need to be deported back to England and the US, and let these folks do what they want with their resources? Remember the terrorizing ways the WWF would treat indigenous people? Murder, violence, and torture all in the name of saving animals??? Think about it people, open your eyes!!!

What a tragedy ! what is being done to the poachers?

Mike is focusing on elephant, ( which is good) but it is not only elephant. It concerns rhino, lions, cheetah, leopards, pangolin, and many more animal species being poached for human "needs". Next to that insects and other animals die out because of the use of pesticides, marine life dies out because of (plastics) pollution and other animals become extinct because of global warming. The cause in all cases are humans. There are just too many of us.

Having spent time working and talking to the relevant authorities and people on the ground (including community leaders) in the past 4 weeks I will say this is a very mis-informed film. I know the BBC for producing very well researched documentaries but sadly this falls very short. The government has never denied that there is a poaching problem, the issue here is that Dr. Chase picked a side in a political situation and sadly the elephants are collateral damage.

Yeah I don't understand. I think the scientist was really clear. His assessments were discounted because of the political considerations of the news of poaching impacting tourism to the overall business of safari tourism in Botswana. Clearly some people don't want to know that the animals are being actively poached if they are projecting an image as a safe haven for such animals.

Too painful to watch..

The crux of the matter is that there are too many elephants and the ecosystem has literally been visibly deforested in a few parts. But first a few points. Botswana does more to protect animals than any other nation in the world. Here is how. The biggest military division in the country has the sole task of protecting wildlife. It comprises of air force, special forces and ground force as well as a river force whose existence is just for the protection of animals. The intelligence community is actively involved in the anti-poaching. Financial intelligence tracks income that might be related to money earned from poaching. Directorate of Intelligence fields Israelli and American equipment for a more military intelligence for anti-poaching. Police are also involved. Botswana is the 44th largest country in the world landmass, yet has the world's second largest game reserve. That is madness at about 10% of total size of the country. There are many other parks and game reserves beside it. Botswana has the world's largest population of elephants. This is not a random occurrence at all. The total number of elephants equals over a third the population of the capital city Gaborone. Last but not least, the military and every single journalist and news site that has actually visited the area, has reported DR Chase's claim as simply sensational and misinformed. Not only that, but HIS OWN DATA, shows that less elephants have been poached than in the previous years. The proposed hunting will be in the presence of officials to make sure nothing funny happens. It is a better solution than simple mass culling and can be suspended if elephant populations go down.

You’re right, thanks to past government administrations and international aid, Botswana is leading the way for wildlife conservation. Now that there’s a new administration, it would be unwise to relax regulations and risk losing all progress made in the last 20 years. Thanks to all the people of Botswana for leading the way & hopefully Botswana can maintain past successes.

At the 20:06 mark, they talk about how hunting might damage the image of Brand Botswana and have a negative impact on jobs and government revenues etc, as a tourism scholar in the country its funny how they talk about revenue even though most of it does not circulate in the country. Almost all tourism enterprises in the north are owned by foreigners who hire Batswana on low paying posts, all those revenues are then leaked to their home countries, we as Batswana hardly benefit from the tourism and the issue of hunting would help a lot, we are not saying all the elephants should be killed all we are saying is that if hunting is re introduced we would benefit more and we would reduce the human wildlife conflict... This documentary is very misleading and I am disappointed by BBC

Save animals

A sad thing was that people pay fortune to come in botswana just to see elephants but had no idea how many of them are being kiled in a day or how is this still being denied by the goverment those who knows that elephant hunting is still happening there.

After the news of huge no of elephants dying rapidly. Something is going on. It's not poaching now.

Weirdest thing, no vultures, no hyenas, no scavenger at all. If an elephant falls in the forest, there's always something eating it's remains. All of the video and photos of these dead animals are conspicuously lying about intact, no sign of scavenger.

I was going to Botswana, but if the government is helping poachers exterminate the elephants, no way will I support that with my tourism. No one should go there until they replenish the elephant populations to an acceptable growing number.

Mike Chase stop distorting information and misguiding people

I love Botswana! 🇧🇼

THOSE ARE OLD CAUCAUS if at all you were there when it was fresh where are the photos...

280-300 elephants are killed in only 5 years and that was a 60% of elephants who were killed so only 40% of elephant left after that case and before also some elphants were killed so estimated value is that there are only 30% of elephant left in that country

So why are the elephants dying?

Translocate Bostwana Elephants to other countries

stars moon sun eatrh terra pluto mars.

is this information shown on media over and over to the people who purchase the "goods" that are taken when an elephant dies?

I feel if man kind can come.up with idea and use of using animal parts then they surely can come up with alternative things and items to use in place of animal parts this is just sad pethatic and sorry no animal should be killed just becuz one wants a part of its body to display

You think this has to do with cov19 ???

Just a horrible thijg these poachers ....they are horrible humans ! Damn it !

Please get portuguese subtitles and all possible languases. And get international military teams doing the protection, for end the corrupction. And extra help for the teams already doing protection.

The government of Botswana should actively consider legalising hunting at that level which would not harm the elephant wildlife drastically. As far as illegal poaching is concerned, that would reduce once hunting is allowed. It would help local people in earning their livelihood and they would also come out in support of preventing illegal poaching. Otherwise, the problem would remain same and only degrade with each passing day.

Botswana, thank you for preserving these animals, but you also shouldnt be complacent bec the poachers are just waiting for you to put your guard down, these poachers are greedy opportunistic vile creatures, please just investigate, there's nothing wrong if you will check if there really is a rise in poaching, also I heard that not only China has ivory trade but Japan as well, so I hope world leaders will also look into that, where the demand is coming from and not just put all the pressure on Botswana, check all countries that uses ivory, all industry that uses ivory, these animals are Botswana's heritage but it is other countries that have uses for ivory so let's cut the hypocrisy here, ok? STOP THE DEMAND FOR IVORY AND HELP BOTSWANA REALLY BENEFIT ECONOMICALLY FROM THE TOURISM OF THESE PARKS
