Donation Of Computer And Printer: As a result of a generous donation by the executors of the late Peter Garlake estate, we are in the process of renovating our little library at Harare Children's Home, which will be named after him. We are keen to have a couple of computers in it for the children to use for research, reading and games and I wondered, please, if any one might have a working computer and printer s/he could donate to us?

KARIBA ANIMAL WELFARE FUND TRUST - REPORTS OF WOUNDED WILDLIFE 29/4/14

KARIBA ANIMAL WELFARE FUND TRUST  - REPORTS OF WOUNDED WILDLIFE 29/4/14

 

We have received a further 2 reports on the following

 

ELEPHANT

Wound on inside of leg

This has been checked and looks like an abscess that has burst.

It seems fine but will keep a check on it

 

ZEBRA – Seen near Nyamhunga with blood on the back leg

Looks okay and should heal on its own but will also keep a check on it.

 

We are still looking out for the small Buffalo herd as mentioned earlier in the week. We need to check the leg on the calf which is badly swollen.  The bush is still quite thick so they are not seen as often even though they are around.

 

Please keep a look out for all the above animals and try and let us know where you see them and time.

As far as I know there has been no incidents on the road involving the convoy. The situation is calm and we have received no reports of any trouble.

People have to use the convoy if they are travelling south from Inchope , the times for the convoy have still not changed, they are

Muxungwe – Save 0700 hrs. and 1300 hrs.

Save – Muxungwe 0900 hrs. and 1500 hrs.

Travellers please remember keep calm and respect the authorities as this goes a long way to making your journey more enjoyable. The army has started searching vehicles at both starting points of the convoy, they are looking for weapons, keep a close eye on them as some things have gone missing, phones and cameras. If you find something missing please report to the next Police station. Something will be done.

Best regards

Martin.

Burning

From: Tracey Hugill tracey@awaretrust.org

Despite Dr Lisa Marabini’s warnings about the health implications of burning, especially in the wake of the Pomona fire - here we go again!  As soon as the rains subside, the burning starts again, causing harm to us all and our environment!

 

Every individual deserves to have knowledge of the health implications to themselves, their families and the damage to the environment - the information simply needs to reach them.  As Dr Marabini has already said, “we ALL need to become pro-active in this department. If everyone reading this stopped just once in their day (or week!) to politely explain that burning is not only extremely hazardous to health but also illegal, maybe we could start to create some awareness. If everyone wrote letters of complaint to their police station, or just talked to police officers at road blocks about the air pollution it may just help”.  How many of us will actually distribute this information, take a moment out of our busy days to protect ourselves and our families or take time to compost or recycle waste?

 

EMA have confirmed that “burning of any material which gives off any toxin is illegal”.  That means virtually everything!  EMA is trying to combat this problem with a team to deal with responses and fine enforcement, but please take into account that this team is stretched to the limit and also concentrates on industrial toxic pollution throughout the country. A huge task! Give people the opportunity to understand the health implications, give the benefit of knowledge and only then report those who persistently ignore the law, thereby preserving resources to concentrate on other important issues.  EMA is happy to receive any assistance from the public in educating and perhaps, together, we can provide the information and let conscience do the rest.  It’s up to each of us, it’s our air!

 

There is an operational hotline to report illegal dumping of waste and littering from vehicles which is 04 770339.  When reporting on littering from a vehicle the ZRP follow up with details of car owner addresses and a fine is issued, apparently within 2 days.  Report the vehicle registration number, time and area where the offence was spotted.  The fines are apparently $20 (illegal waste dumping), $50 (littering from a vehicle) and $250 (illegal dumping of industrial waste). tracey@awareturst.org

Pomona Dump

Alicia Dauth aliciadauth@gmail.com

I am a graduate student through an online correspondence program in Southern California and am currently working on a project regarding upgrades and a case study of the Pomona dump.

 

I am looking to find some answers to questions I have about the dump (I understand that it was an old quarry) and the surrounding area and hope you may be able to help me locate the person with this knowledge. 

 

1. Total area (acres, hectares) which the dump occupies; and

2. Depth and slope of the dump; and

3. Operation start date;and

4. Is there a gas or leachate collection monitoring system?; and

5. Allowable waste within dump; and

6. Are there currently any liners or any mitigation measures in place to control contamination or runoff?;and

7. Owner ship and operator of the dump.

 

If any one would be able to assist with this information or point me in the correct direction it would be much appreciated.

 

Kind regards,

 

Alicia Dauth

Bulawayo Spca

From: Fiona Burns burns@yoafrica.com

As you may know I have become the main fundraiser for our Bulawayo Spca.  Being a third world country dogs and cats are not treated as pets are in the first world.  We have a huge task ahead to get sterilization under control and reduce the breeding that is happening, hence homeless dogs which more often than not when admitted get put to sleep.  My dream this year is to fund a mobile clinic to get out to the outer suburbs and rural areas to treat, vaccinate and sterilize animals as well as educate people on how to look after them.  Please forward this to everyone you know who can help donate towards this it will make a huge difference to the animals here in Zimbabwe.

                                                                                                                        S P C A

Bulawayo Spca is in need of a Mobile Clinic – to reach out to the outer suburbs and rural areas and treat, vaccinate and sterilize dogs and cats.  Between January and March 2014, 320 dogs were admitted to the Kennels and 279 were put to sleep.  Only 18 were lucky enough to receive new homes.  In the same period 46 cats were admitted and 45 were put to sleep.  Only 5 cats got new homes in this period.  It is heartbreaking. 

If you go online under www.indiegogo.com, click on the search key and look under Spca Mobile Clinic, you can use a credit card and donate to the SPCA Mobile Clinic.  If you do not have a credit card you can email me on burns@yoafrica.com for Zimbabwe bank details for the Spca account.

Every donation stands a chance to win a 10 day Safari for two people in Zimbabwe, very kindly donated by Wild Horizons, Imvelo Safaris, Nehimba Safaris and The Amalinda Collection as well as a night at Banff Lodge in Bulawayo.  This is an amazing prize to win.

Any money raised over the costs of funding the Mobile Clinic will be put to a Sterilization programme to try and get the over breeding, hence homeless dogs that more than likely get put to sleep, under control.

On behalf of the Spca, I thank you so very much for supporting this amazing charity and all their hard working staff in helping our animals of Bulawayo.

Fiona Burns

 

Here's hoping that you all had a good long weekend over Easter!

It's been very quiet down at the kennels over this period and not too much out of the usual has been happening..

We have had lots of sick animals coming in, and many surrendered when the owners are told they will have to pay for treatment. And we have many cases where the animal has been left to suffer for days (sometimes weeks!) before the owners decide to bring them to us, and they don't understand why we can't help the animal anymore as it's too far gone. Please make sure to bring your dog or cat to us soon if you think it's unwell.  

At the moment we have 5 ex SPCA dogs in the kennels - the owners either having left and surrendered them or dumped them and we have found them again. 

Re homing has been a little bit better this month - thanks so much to people who really care, you're wonderful! 

Sadly we are seeing more and more posters up in shops/shopping centres advertising puppies for sale. It's so awful that people don't care enough about animals to stop breeding because there are already too many homeless pets. And so we end up with our kennels filling up with the unwanted ones 😔 Please keep educating those around you - SPAY, NEUTER & ADOPT! 

Dumi has been capturing stray pigs and dogs in Nkayi, which has been quite a mission but we are getting on top of it. The owners of the stray animals will have to claim their animals within 10 days.

We are trying to set up a Mobile Clinic so that we can reach further afield and treat and sterilise more animals. If you, your company or your family & friends from around the world would like to donate to this fund please contact Fiona Burns on 0779544204. Just imagine how great it would be if we can get this set up!! 

Our borehole packed up on Sunday so we are having quite a horrid time trying to keep everywhere clean using the municipal water. Thankfully Shane has been sorting out our borehole and it should be working again soon! 

And out flat renovations have almost been completed and as soon as they are it will be up for rent which is really great..

Scruffs Dog Show is next month so it's all systems go to organise a great day for everyone.. (To book stalls contact Berry on 0773807188)

Bulawayo, once again we are appealing to you - we have a little Wish-list of the things we are in need of at the moment, and any donations are GREATLY appreciated!

Our Wish-list: 

🔹Disinfectant for cleaning the kennels 

🔹Blankets for winter

🔹Dog dishes (metal ones please - they break plastic ones playing with them!)

🔹Cat trees/scratching posts/cat 'jungle gyms'

Gravestone

I was inspecting a property for rent a week ago and in so doing I discovered a lovely tombstone/concrete memorial block?? This is inscribed with the following details:

1583364 Sergeant

A.P. Gudger

Royal Air Force

12^th May 1944

I googled it very briefly and it seems that this person was killed in active service in the 2^nd world war.

I thought that I would write in to let you know this in the event that there are family members in Zimbabwe who are not aware of this. It is lying on it’s own in the back of the garden at the back of an unoccupied house in the Avenues. I can be contacted on cowap@zol.co.zw should there be any possible family member or friend may be interested in this. It would be a shame if this destroyed.

Yip! I received an email from Owen Byrne who suggested that I get in touch with Mike Hartell. I did this and it was truly amazing. He took the service number that is inscribed on the stone and informed that he would call me back in an hour. Well, to my total amazement he called me back within 20 minutes and read out Sgt Gudger’s details. He apparently was a volunteer air service man and died in action. Mike is going to check the gravesite on Saturday to confirm that we are dealing with the same person. He will then clean and collect the stone and we will place it on Sgt Gudger’s grave. Mike claims that I possibly found the original headstone. It does look very old. What an amazing day!!! Tears and laughter all at the same time. Mike takes care of all the Pioneer blocks???

God bless
