I-Uganda Wildlife Authority Yethula Uhlelo Lokusebenza Olusha Lwe-Gorilla

I-RoundBob kanye ne-The Naturalist, amabhizinisi ezokulondolozwa kwemvelo ase-Uganda asebenzisana ne-Uganda Wildlife Authority, basungule uhlelo lokusebenza lweselula olusekelwe ekubhaliseni oluvumela abasebenzisi ukuthi bajoyine umndeni wama-gorilla futhi babe nesandla ekusindiseni lolu hlobo lwezilwane ezisengozini ngokuzitika emisebenzini umsebenzisi angayenza nomndeni wakhe.

Lokhu kuhlanganiswe nokwethulwa koMkhosi Womndeni Wami Gorilla, umcimbi ozobona abaculi basekhaya nabakwamanye amazwe benandisa eKisoro eningizimu-ntshonalanga yezwe kulo nyaka ozayo kaMeyi 2022.

Ngemali engaba ngamadola amabili ngenyanga, abasebenzisi bazothola imvume yokungena yonke indawo endaweni ye-Bwindi/Mgahinga Conservation, okuyikhaya lama-gorilla asezintabeni angaphezu kwama-2% asele emhlabeni.

Abasebenzisi bazokwazi ukulandela uhambo lwansuku zonke lwama-gorilla nokufuduka komndeni ngokulandelela okubonakalayo.

Bangakwazi ukugubha izinsuku zabo zokuzalwa nokuzalwa okusha, futhi bathole izibuyekezo ezivela kubaqaphi ababavikelayo nababazi kangcono. Umuntu angalandela imindeni eminingi yama-gorilla ngendlela afisa ngayo, azi ukuthi ukubhalisa kwabo kuzovikela lezi zidalwa ezikhazimulayo nokwakha imiphakathi yendawo ezizungezile.

Ukwethulwa, obubanjelwe eProtea Kampala Skyz Hotel eNaguru, eKampala, bekuhanjelwe abalondolozi bemvelo abaziwayo nabanye abasembonini yezokuvakasha. Abaqokiwe bahlanganisa uLilly Ajarova, i-CEO yeBhodi Lezokuvakasha lase-Uganda; UDkt. Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka, umsunguli kanye no-CEO we-Conservation Through Public Health; kanye noStephen Masaba, uMqondisi Wezokuvakasha Nokuthuthukiswa Kwebhizinisi we-Uganda Wildlife Authority.

UFidelis Kanyamunyu, ozingele ngokungemthetho oguquliwe kanye Nesikhulu Esihlonishwayo Sezilwane Zasendle kanye ne-Uganda Wildlife Authority kanye NoMsunguli Wekhaya Lamagorila, ungumgqugquzeli oshisekayo wokongiwa kwama-gorilla kanye nemiphakathi ehlala eduze kwawo. Bekuwumbono wakhe ukuqhamuka nezindlela ezintsha zokwenza imali ukuze asekele imizamo yokongiwa kwemvelo kanye nokubuyisela emiphakathini yendawo. “Ngisemncane ngahamba ngayozingela ehlathini ngakhula ngaba umzingeli ngesikhathi kuqoshwa izindawo zokongiwa kwemvelo,” kusho uKanyamunyu. “Manje sengaziwa njengommeli wokongiwa kwemvelo futhi ngisaqhubeka nokuqwashisa umphakathi.

“Ngabuka ihlathi ngathi, ubaba nokhokho bethu babeziphilisa; ngingayithola kanjani indlela yokuziphilisa ngaphandle kokuya lapho? Ngafika ngezokuvakasha. Lapho sihlala ama-gorilla, saletha abatshalizimali ukuthi bazokwakha amahhotela; kwase kuba negebe lokumaketha ama-gorilla, ngoba abantu beza kuphela ngoJulayi nango-August.”

UDavid Gonahosa onguCo-Founder wathintwa nguFedelis wamtshela ukuthi kumele senze okuthile ngamagorila endaweni yeBwindi. Wathi uDavid, “…Ngakho-ke ngacabanga ukuthi singasebenzisa ubuchwepheshe. Kukhona cishe 1,063 gorilla kwesokunxele emhlabeni, futhi uquqaba laphaya abazi. Sisanda kuba nomuzwa wokuthi ubuchwepheshe bungenye yezindlela zokwazisa umhlaba hhayi nje kuphela kodwa nokuba nesandla kulo lonke uhlelo lokuzama ukusindisa ama-gorilla asezintabeni.”

Ubuye wengeza wathi: “I-Home of the Gorillas Initiative, ngokubambisana ne-Uganda Wildlife Authority, ihlose ukuthengisa imisebenzi eyenza imali engalandeli ngomkhondo ngobuchwepheshe obusizayo ukuze umphakathi womhlaba ukwazi ukusebenzisana nama-gorilla, ngaleyo ndlela kuzuzwe ezinye izindlela zokuxhasa ukongiwa kwemvelo.” I-Gonahasa iphinde yachaza ukubaluleka kwalesi sinyathelo, yathi: “Ngaphezu kwesicelo esisekelwe ekubhaliseni [so]Mndeni Wami Wama-Gorilla, umkhankaso we-Home of the Gorillas uzokwethula iqoqo lokuqala le-NFT (Non Fungible Token) elilinganiselwe lokulondolozwa elixhunywe + Ama-gorilla asezintabeni angama-200 ahlala endle."

Eveza ukuthi kungani abantu nezinhlangano zezinkampani kudingeka bazise futhi bakhathazeke kakhulu ngezinselele zomhlaba wonke ezidlangile, uTerence Chambati, Umsunguli Okanye Naye kanye Nesikhulu Esisebenzayo Sekhaya Lama-Gorilla, wabelane ngendlela abanikela ngayo ekuthuthukiseni ukuqwashisa nobunikazi.

“Sonke sidinga ukuba ngabalondolozi bemvelo, kungakhathalekile isizinda sethu noma indawo esikuyo.”

"Ngokusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe obusebenzayo, senza abantu abaningi bazi ngale nhlokodolobha yemvelo esibusiswe ngayo, okuholela ekubeni kube namanxusa ama-gorilla asezintabeni emhlabeni jikelele."

U-Lily Ajarova, Isikhulu Esiphezulu Sebhodi Lezokuvakasha lase-Uganda, uncome lesi sinyathelo, wathi: “I-Uganda isilungele ngokuphelele ukufaka isicelo kanye nomkhosi ofana nalona. Sekuyisikhathi sokuthi umhlaba uze uzobona ukuthi kungakanani okuhlinzekwa yi-Uganda.”

Njengososayensi ohamba phambili nomlondolozi wemvelo ohamba phambili emizamweni yokongiwa kwama-gorilla eMpumalanga Afrika, uDkt. Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka wagcizelela ukubaluleka kokuhlanganiswa komphakathi: “Kubalulekile ukuqaphela amathuba okutshala imali alethwa ukongiwa kwemvelo.”

USam Mwandha, uMqondisi Omkhulu we-Uganda Wildlife Authority uthe: “Uhlelo lwe-Home of the Gorilla luhloselwe ukwazisa umhlaba wonke ama-gorilla asezintabeni, izindawo zawo zokuhlala, nabantu abaseduze abasisiza ngempela ukulondoloza indawo yabo yokuhlala - hhayi nje ama-gorilla asezintabeni. abasebenzi kodwa nemiphakathi - futhi lokhu kunikeza ulwazi emhlabeni wonke mayelana nama-gorilla asezintabeni, mayelana nokongiwa kwemvelo, mayelana nezinselele, ngakho-ke kuhambisana kahle nomsebenzi wethu owukuba ulondoloze izilwane zasendle nezimila zethu."

Uqhube wathi: “Ngakho-ke njengoba abantu bazi, bazolondoloza izilwane zasendle kodwa futhi kuzoheha abantu abakwazi ukuvakashela ama-gorilla asezintabeni, futhi uma bevakashile bazokhokha imadlana ehlanganiswe ndawonye inikeza izinsiza esizidingayo ukuze silondoloze. Ngakho lo mkhankaso yinto esijabule ngayo ngakho uzoseseka.”

NgoDisemba 7, 2009, i-UWA yethula umkhankaso ofanayo kwaSony Pictures Studios LA. I-USA ibize lo mcimbi owawugcwele izihlabani ngokuthi #friendagorilla lapho izihlabani zaseHollywood uJason Biggs, Kristy Wu, noSimon Curtis emkhankasweni wokuqwashisa ngama-gorilla asezintabeni asengozini yokushabalala ngefilimu emfishane eyethulwa ukunxenxa umphakathi ukuthi uxhase i-gorilla. ku-inthanethi ngomkhankaso we-#friendagorilla. Umkhankaso uqale ekhaya lama-gorilla asezintabeni e-Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park e-Uganda lapho laba badlali abathathu bekwazile ukulandelela nokuba ngabangani bala magorila.

Ngokwanda nokuthengeka kwama-smart phone, okuhlanganisa nohlelo lokusebenza ku-Google PlayStore olukhula ngokushesha kusukela ngaleso sikhathi, umndeni we-#mygorilla kulindeleke ukuthi usakazwe kubabukeli ababanzi ngempumelelo enkulu. Ukuze uthole ulwazi olwengeziwe, landela @mygorillafamily noma vakashela gorilla.umndeni. I-iOS nezinguqulo zohlelo lokusebenza lwewebhu zizotholakala ekupheleni kukaFebruwari 2022.

Ama-gorilla asezintabeni ase-Uganda abone ukwehla okukhulu kwemali etholwa yizivakashi kusukela umqedazwe we-COVID-19, obe nomthelela omubi kakhulu emizamweni yokongiwa kwemvelo. Lesi sinyathelo siza njengempumuzo ngesikhathi lo mkhakha ufakaza kancane ithemba lokusimama nokusimama.
