U-Sir David ukuqamba i-baby gorilla e-Kwita Izina 2006 e-Rwanda

“Ukube nje singabhekana nenselele enkulu kunazo zonke yesintu yokubuyisela lokho esikuboleke ngokungafanele egameni lempucuko, umhlaba ubungaba indawo engcono.” Lowo bekuwumlayezo obalulekile kaSir David Attenborough njengoba exoxa neqembu elincane lezivakashi ezihloniphekile e-Rwanda High Commission izolo.

Umsakazi osemnkantshubomvu kanye nomlondolozi wemvelo wamenywa nguMhlonishwa u-Yamina Karitanyi, uKhomishana Omkhulu waseRwanda e-UK (ngokusebenzisana neRwanda Development Board), ukuba avakashele i-High Commission futhi aqambe igorilla esanda kuzalwa njengengxenye yokuqanjwa kwe-Kwita Izina gorilla yalo nyaka. umcimbi. Ngesikhathi elapho, uSir David wahlangana nezivakashi ezikhethiwe ukuze axoxe ngokulondolozwa kwemvelo eRwanda, ukuhlangana kwakhe okudumile nama-gorilla asezintabeni lapho ngo-1978, kanye nendawo ekhethekile lezi zilwane eziphawulekayo ezikuyo ezinhliziyweni zabantu emhlabeni wonke.

'Awukho umuzwa owedlula ukubhekana ubuso nobuso nenkawu enkulu; ukufana kwabo nesintu kuyamangaza' kusho u-Attenborough. 'Njengoba ubagqolozela, qaphela ukuthi ungabhekani ngamehlo, uba mncane phambi kwabo futhi uqale ukwazisa inqubo yokuziphendukela kwemvelo yokuphila'.

Ukushintsha izinhlanhla

Njengoba kusele abantu ababalelwa ku-880 kuphela endle, ama-gorilla asezintabeni Asengozini Kakhulu futhi abhekana nezinsongo eziningi zokusinda kwawo. Nokho, ngenxa yemizamo engakhathali yemiphakathi, abaqaphi, abalondolozi bemvelo kanye nezinhlaka zikahulumeni, ikusasa labo libukeka liqhakazile kakhulu namuhla kunangesikhathi i-Attenborough ihlangana nabo okokuqala ngo-1978.

 

'Ngesikhathi ithimba lamafilimu lifika eRwanda ngo-1978, sahlangatshezwa uDiane Fossey owayedangele ngenxa yokushona kwelinye lama-gorilla - owesilisa omncane owayebulewe abazingeli. Ngaleso sikhathi ama-gorilla asezintabeni ayesezoshabalala ngempela, futhi lapho ngihamba wangethembisa ukuthi ngizokwenza engingakwenza ukuze ngisize' kusho u-Attenborough.

Lapho ebuyela e-UK, u-Attenborough wahlela umhlangano neFauna & Flora International (FFI), inhlangano esiza abantulayo asayeseseka njengephini likamongameli. Kusukela kulowo mhlangano kwazalwa i-Mountain Gorilla Project, esekhona nanamuhla njengoHlelo Lokulondolozwa Kwezingulube Lwamazwe Ngamazwe (IGCP) – ukusebenzisana phakathi kwe-FFI kanye ne-WWF.

Futhi ibisebenza. Ngenxa yenqubomgomo yamabomu yokongiwa kwentando yeningi esekela futhi enikeza imiphakathi amandla okuthatha ubunikazi, kanye nokuzikhandla kohulumeni nabalingani bokulondoloza imvelo kulo lonke uhla lwayo, inani lamagorilla asezintabeni manje liyakhula.

Ukongiwa ngaphandle kwemingcele

Lo moya wokubambisana ubonakale ubaluleke kakhulu ekuqhubekeni nokuphila kwe-gorilla yasezintabeni naphezu kwezinsongo ezinzima.

'Ukongiwa kwama-gorilla asezintabeni bekulokhu kuphonselwa inselelo yiqiniso lokuthi lezi zilwane ziwela imingcele yezifunda ezintathu - iRwanda, i-Uganda kanye neDemocratic Republic of Congo (DRC)' kusho uMqondisi we-IGCP, u-Anna Behm Masozera.

'Ngezinye izikhathi kuye kwasho ubungozi bezombusazwe ngisho nomuntu siqu ukuqinisekisa ukuthi imisebenzi yokongiwa kwemvelo kanye nokuvikela ididiyelwe kahle emingceleni yamazwe ngamazwe, ngisho nalapho lokhu kwakungewona umqondo odumile noma oqondwa kahle. Kodwa ngenxa yokuzimisela okumangalisayo kwabo bonke abahilelekile, ohulumeni balezi zifundazwe ezintathu basanda kusayina isivumelwano esiyingqopha-mlando esizovula indlela yokongiwa kwemvelo ngendlela ehlelekile ngaphandle kwemingcele, siguqule inselelo ibe yithuba elimangalisayo lezilwane zasendle kanye nabantu.

Ukubuyisela

Ngakho ingabe ama-gorilla asezintabeni awufanele wonke lo mzamo?

Ngokusho kwe-Rwanda Development Board, ezokuvakasha manje ziwumthombo omkhulu wemali engenayo yase-Rwanda engenise amaRandi ayizigidi ezingu-318 ngo-2015. Ukulinganisa okunye kuphakamisa ukuthi imisebenzi yama-gorilla asezintabeni iyingxenye ehamba phambili yezokungcebeleka, ehlanganisa cishe u-60% wale nzuzo isiyonke.

Kodwa iSikhulu Esiphezulu Sezokuvakasha eRwanda Development Board, u-Belise Kariza, ukholelwa ukuthi kuningi kakhulu kukho ngaphezu kwenani ledola - njengoba kuboniswe yiKwita Izina, umcimbi okhethekile obanjelwa amagorilla minyaka yonke.

'Imikhosi yokuqamba izingane ezisanda kuzalwa ibiyingxenye yesiko nesiko laseRwanda amakhulu eminyaka. I-Kita Izina ixhumene nala masiko ukuze kwakhiwe ubudlelwano obuqinile phakathi kwabantu bakuleli namagorila' esho.

'Amagama anikezwe ama-gorilla aphinde abambe iqhaza elikhulu ekuqapheni okuqhubekayo kwabantu ngabanye, njengengxenye yemizamo emangalisayo kaHulumeni waseRwanda ngokusebenzisa iRwanda Development Board - ngokubambisana nabalingani abahlukene bezokongiwa kwemvelo kanye nemiphakathi yendawo - ukuvikela intaba. ama-gorilla nendawo yawo yokuhlala' wabe esengeza.

'Ngomhla zi-2 kuMandulo, siyajabula ukusho ukuthi sizobe siqamba ama-gorilla angu-22 njengoba sigubha i-Kwita Izina yesi-12. Eceleni kwale migubho, sizophinde futhi sibe nenkundla 'yengxoxo ngokokongiwa kwemvelo' eklanyelwe ukusisiza sakhe ikusasa elihle lezilwane zasendle kanye nabalingani kwezokongiwa kwemvelo emhlabeni wonke'.

U-Attenborough unethemba lokuthi indaba yokuphumelela kwe-gorilla yasezintabeni ingaphindaphindwa kwenye indawo. 'Emhlabeni wonke, izinhlobo zezinto eziphilayo kanye nemvelo ziyawohloka. Uma i-gorilla yasezintabeni isifundise noma yini, kungukuthi ukulondolozwa kwezwe lethu lemvelo kubalulekile hhayi nje ezinhlotsheni zasendle kuzo ngokwazo, kodwa esintwini sisonke'.
