Our report for August is regrettably a very short one; despite a great deal of commitment and effort, we are waiting for the plantation owners and Forestry SA to resolve internal
issues before they can decide on planned research that will mitigate baboon damage.
It is extremely frustrating for Baboon Matters as we are aware of the many lives of baboons who are killed in the pine plantations, and we have offered to help with collecting
data, counting the baboon troops and assisting wherever possible to get non-lethal management methods in place.
We are hoping that a meeting will take place in coming months and that the internal forestry issues will be resolved so that we can move forward and fins sustainable solutions.
