Some of the best news on this continent stays quiet.
Mountain gorillas are climbing again, the only great ape whose numbers are rising. Black rhino grew last year. Namibia has handed more than 40 percent of its land to conservation, much of it managed by the communities who live there. The Kavango Zambezi region still holds the largest population of savanna elephants on earth.
This is the part of travel we care about most. Done with intention, it pays the rangers and funds the conservancies. We get to bring people close to it, and that is a privilege we hold gently.
