Full text
Abstract:
The Little Karoo, situated in the Succulent Karoo biome of South Africa, has been heavily transformed by land use, and only 8.6% of the remaining natural vegetation is considered to be intact. There is ample evidence that the main cause of degradation is the overstocking of ostriches, an industry that has been the major economic driver of the area for more than 150 years. The ostrich stocking rate currently recommended is 22 ha.ostrich⁻¹. A literature review was used to examine the evidence, assumptions and rationale on which recommended and actually implemented stocking rates for ostriches ar

Full text
Abstract:
Leopards (Panthera pardus) are the most common large predators, free roaming outside of protected areas across most of South Africa. Leopard persistence is attributed to their tolerance of rugged terrain that is subject to less development pressure, as well as their cryptic behaviour. Nevertheless, existing leopard populations are threatened indirectly by ongoing transformation of natural habitat and directly through hunting and conflict with livestock farmers. Together these threats may further isolate leopards to fragmented areas of core natural habitat. I studied leopard habitat preferences

Abstract:
The re-introduction of large carnivores into relatively small conservation areas that fall within the historic distribution range of the species is becoming an increasingly common occurrence. The success of such re-introductions depends very much on the quality of the information that is available to guide management decisions, but in many cases, little information is available. The re-introduction of lions and cheetahs to Sanbona created the opportunity to monitor the behaviour of re-introduced predators to a relatively large system that was characterised by a low ungulate stocking density an

Thesis (DPhil (Geography and Environmental Studies))--University of Stellenbosch, 2009.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The rapid growth of tourism, particularly heritage tourism, in South Africa is leading to a detrimental impact on heritage resources. Part of the problem lies in the lack of knowledge visitors have of the significance and vulnerability of the resources they are engaging with. Another part of the problem is the inherent conflict between the heritage tourism sector and the heritage management sector. Whilst sharing the same resource base, each sector has very different aims. Tourism

The Wine of Origin district of Calitzdorp is a small, demarcated area around Calitzdorp in the Little Karoo, surrounded by the Rooiberg, Swartberg and Kleinberg mountains. With a mean February temperature (MFT) of 23.7ºC and a low annual rainfall of 233 mm, the district of Calitzdorp has a similar climate to that of the Douro

Abstract:
This study has shown that using active rehabilitation in combination with improved management strategies (e.g. rest from grazing) may induce recovery of certain ecosystem services within practically relevant time scales. However, these benefits might not be tangible for landowners or society as of yet, due to the small-scale nature of the rehabilitation application along with the relatively high, short-term associated costs. To alleviate financial constraints on farmers and in order to socially and financially enhance local communities, the focus for now should be on sourcing funds from govern

Abstract:
Ostriches are an important commercial species in South Africa and are becoming increasingly so in other parts of the world. Fertility and hatchability of artificially incubated ostrich eggs, however, is generally regarded as low compared to other poultry species and to ostriches in the wild. Investigation into specific farming practices at present indicated scope for an overall improvement in productivity through a sound breeding strategy. This thesis investigated factors that affect egg production, fertility, and hatchability of artificially incubated eggs in the Little Karoo region of South
