Very interesting and educative write up indeed.The angle through which the hunt of bush meat trade sustainability is looked at(especially as it relates to gender and socio-economic beliefs )is crucial in developing policies and and strategies to ensure a steady supply of the ‘meat’ and prevent extinction;Take for instance cattle and even ‘edible birds’, the general acceptability of both as a source of nourishment and financial gains has made their continuous supply possible(almost every bare land is a ranch or poultry of some sort).I think the world is yet to really notice and explore the importance of this source of ‘livelihood’but the earlier we do, the better.
On another note, i did not know Elephants and Gorillas are eaten in some parts of the globe…….
