The "extensive wilderness" of Zambia's central Luangwa Valley is
the homeland of the Valley Bisa whose cultural practices have
enriched this environment for centuries. Beginning with the
intrusions of warlords and later British colonials, successive
generations have experienced the callousness and challenges of
colonialism. Their homeland, a slender corridor surrounded by three
national parks and an escarpment, is a microcosm of the political,
economic and cultural battlefields surrounding most African
protected areas today. The story of the Valley Bisa diverges from
the myths that conservationists, administrators, and
philanthropists, tell about Africa's environmental and wildlife
crises.
