Abstract In much of Central Africa, eating wildlife is seen as a normal, desirable, and common-sense practice. Almost all wild animals, from the largest mammals to the smallest invertebrates, are hunted, traded, and consumed, providing vital income and nutrition for millions of people. But as demand for bushmeat grows, animal populations

Global patterns and determinants of the economic importance of bushmeat
Biological Conservation, 2017 Knowledge about the economic role of bushmeat in rural livelihoods mainly stems from small case studies in sites characterised by high hunting intensities, challenging the formation of national-level conservation and development policies.

There is growing evidence that commercial hunting of wildlife for sale as food is a more immediate threat to wildlife conservation and species survival than is habitat destruction throughout most of the tropical forested regions of the world, a topic discussed in the Policy Forum “Wildlife harvest in logged tropical forests” by John G. Robinson, Kent H.

Abstract Chapter 6 looks at bushmeat as money. Its sections present a discussion of how to manage open access resources, a price-cost-earnings commodity chain analysis and an overview of supply and demand drivers. Largely informal, bushmeat hunting and trade is a significant contribution to many rural and urban workers.

Bushmeat Hunting As Climate Threat
Science, 2009Tropical forests store 340 billion tons of carbon, equivalent to more than 40 years' worth of human fossil fuel emissions ([ 1 ][1]). Tropical deforestation and degradation are responsible for an estimated 20% of global carbon emissions to the atmosphere ([ 2 ][2]).

Bushmeat hunting changes regeneration of African rainforests [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2013 To assess ecological consequences of bushmeat hunting in African lowland rainforests, we compared paired sites, with high and low hunting pressure, in three areas of southeastern Nigeria. In hunted sites, populations of important seed dispersers—both small and large primates (including the Cross River gorilla,Gorilla gorilla diehli)—were drastically ...

Bushmeat Hunting and Climate: An Indirect Link
Science, 2010J. F. BRODIE AND H. K. GIBBS (“BUSHMEATHUNTING AS CLIMATE THREAT,”Letters, 16 October 2009, p. 364) argue that bushmeat extractionthreatens the carbon stocks of tropical forests because (i) bushmeathunting reduces abundances of large-bodied vertebrates; (ii) treespecies with large seeds reproduce poorly without large-bodied verte-brates on which they ...
