Vorige Woche hat Michaela Ecker, Archäologin an der @kieluni, gemeinsam mit Kollegïnnen des @cnrs (Frankreich), der University of Botswana und der @uniheidelberg ihre Forschungen in Botswanas Hauptstadt Gaborone vorgestellt. Eingeladen hatten die Botschafterinnen Deutschlands und Frankreichs. Die Präsentation war der Abschluss einer mehr als dreiwöchigen Forschungskampagne in Botswana, in der es unter anderem um Mensch-Umwelt-Interaktionen vor rund 100.000 Jahren ging.

Corridors, not culls, offer solution to Southern #Africa’s growing #elephant population
by Ryan Truscott, 11 Dec 2025
"Situated in the northwestern corner of the #SobbeWildlifeConservancy, in #Namibia’s long, narrow #Zambezi region, the #SobbeCorridor provides a link for elephants moving between #Botswana, #Zambia and #Angola."
Key points:
- Elephant populations in Southern Africa are stable or growing, but the space available for them is not.
- Often, elephant populations are constrained, increasing their impact on the environment or surrounding communities, and triggering calls for controversial solutions, like culls or contraception.
- But studies in a region that hosts 50% of Africa’s remaining savanna elephants (Loxodonta africana) show how the animals make use of wildlife corridors to move between protected areas and neighboring countries.
- Encouraging elephants to migrate can help relieve overpopulation in some areas, but any corridor invariably intersects with human communities, making it both vital ecological infrastructure and a social challenge.#SolarPunkSunday #WildlifeCorridors #WildlifeHabitat #WildlifeCrossings
