16- Red flags for WILDLIFE safari & volunteer tourism w/ Margreen
Many tourists prefer fun facts and experiences over the heavy truths of wildlife conservation, leading to a tourism model that often neglects the needs of the animals and the environment.
What are green flags and red flags of wildlife safaris? Where is a volunteer's money actually going? ...
Margarita Samsonova, an unconventional GREENfluencer and the founder of Behind The Greens media, explains the big differences between fancy safaris and real conservation efforts. She shares how luxury safaris often care more about tourists than animals, leading to poor treatment of wildlife. Margarita's love for animals and nature pushes her to support eco-friendly travel and reveal the true impact of these trips on the environment and local people.
We discuss the importance of transparency in where your money goes and the red flags to watch out for, such as companies promoting selfies with animals or overemphasizing the "big five" sightings. Learn about the green flags that indicate a positive impact, like eco-friendly practices and community involvement.
You'll get inspired, listen to stories about wildlife conservation camps, stories of beautiful interactions and of bad examples of safaris, laugh and get chills.
TOPICS DISCUSSED:
• Greenfluencing and its role in promoting eco-friendly travel
• Differentiating between wildlife experiences and safaris
• The impact of safari tourism on wildlife and ecosystems
• Challenges faced by local communities and wildlife due to safari tourism
• The difficulty in balancing conservation efforts with the desire for entertainment and profit.
• The impact of social media on travel and environmental awareness
• The importance of authenticity and transparency in travel content creation
• The challenges of balancing tourism with wildlife conservation
• Criteria for choosing responsible and ethical wildlife tourism experiences.
• How different types of tourism (safaris, conservation parks) operate and generate revenue.
• The illegal trade of wildlife parts and its devastating effects on animal populations.
• The rise of voluntourism and its impact on wildlife tourism.
• The impact of the covid pandemic on travel trends
• The importance of research and education in responsible tourism
• The concept of the "Big Five" and its implications
• The role of local communities in wildlife conservation

Cependant, je trouve qu'il devrait exister des zones de silences dans les gares avec justes des banc et un respect de tous

I check my brakes and tires quite often because of traveling by bicycle, maybe that helps to have a general check-up once in a while, because these things could happen on any bicycle I guess.. In worst case, jump of your bicycle and lift the back of it, because that's the part that's being pushed electrically. Hope you didn't experience that again after one time! :)

    Hello, I'm traveling solo with my young child in Germany next year. We don't speak German and so I'd be interested in the Silver Status just so we have more support when traveling next summer. Is it possible to buy the silver status without points? Access to lounge would make the chaos of traveling with a child a lot easier, I think. I know you can buy access with the first class tickets, but to have priority status for assistance would be an excellent help while we're there.

      Hi, I totally get your question, but it's a program designed for people who spend a lot of money on German tickets. Basically if you buy lots of tickets/spend a lot of money on it, you'll get to that level. I have never heard of buying the silver status.. But maybe 1st class also has advantages in having a priority status, you could write the railway to ask them? Also, with a 1st class ticket, you'll have access to the lounge which I find incredibly helpful! Have a wonderful day!! Where in Germany will you be traveling?

    If I ever go to the Philippines from the Seattle port, I believe that is the way I would like to go, fathoming that I could bring a lot more baggage, even a small cargo box, thinking to retire there. It is almost like hitching a ride. I wonder how to communicate, and deal with the freighters that make such offerings? Might even be a way to take a round trip to the same place just to check out everything first. A Kindle reader, some books, and a fold-able reading chair that accommodates a cup. I am surprised it is not more popular, but not surprised with people wanting to rush everywhere with convenience.
