Extractions: 3.1 African Philosophy and Its Ethiopian Sources This paper would like to be a synthesis, within a synthesis, within a synthesis. First synthesis: African Philosophy, and within this continent-wide perspective, a second synthesis: the history of Ethiopian Philosophy written in Ge'ez, and together with this second synthesis, the oral expression of wisdom literature including mainly proverbs, songs and folktales - and its philosophical, mostly structural analysis, thus achieving a third synthesis: Ethiopian oral and written sapient and philosophical literature. Although the project sounds grandiose, it is fraught with problems. Is there such thing as African Philosophy? If so, who is or was this African philosopher? How do we know what he thought if it was expressed orally? What are its sources? Should we speak of African Philosophy or of African Philosophies? Ethiopian Philosophy written in Ge'ez - to what extent is it philosophy? What is its relation with religion, or even with theology? In what sense is it philosophy? What are its sources? Oral wisdom literature expressed in proverbs, songs and folktales - this is not considered as philosophy in the West. Why should it be in Africa, in Ethiopia? How can African philosophy be African if it cuts its roots? Are the roots of European, Greek philosophy European or African, Egyptian?

The diversity of climate and topography in Oromiya has attracted a wide variety of wild animals. Black leopard, serval cat, otter, striped hyena, civet, mountain reedbuck, gerenuk, warthog, gelada baboon, colobus monkey, hunting dog, and spot-breasted plover are found in all parts of Oromiya. There are some special wild animals and species of birds in the four national parks established by the government. Oryx, soemmerings, gazelle, caral and 450 species of birds are found in Awash National Park. The mountain nyala ( tragelaphae baxton Similarly, the Ambo Oromo have a detailed zoological classification of faunal diversity. Elephant, buffalo, lion, rhinoceros, giraffe, kudu, Qorkii ( water buck Warabboo (large antelope), and Biichee were found in Ambo. In the recent past, they migrated to other areas because of forest clearance. Hunting also contributed to the depletion of wild animals. In the past, the Oromo viewed hunting as a means of self-actualization. They participated in hunting expeditions and killed different animals. The Oromo had a strong hunting preferences for certain species, such as lion, elephant, rhinoceros, giraffe, leopard, buffalo, greater kudu, and panther. But hunting is no more a source of bush meat, hides and ivory.. In fact, many peasants hunt wild animals once a year during Easter. Previously, they used to hunt during the dry seasons in January, February and March when the animals are very weak and cannot get enough water to drink and grass to graze. Many peasants indiscriminately hunt wild animals without making any distinction between female and male, old and young. Hunters who use hunting as a means of self-realization are expected to get

L'Institut de recherche sur la trypanosomiase du Kenya a étudié pendant plus de 15 ans les bovins de la race Orma Boran dans la région du fleuve Tana au Kenya, infestée par la mouche tsé-tsé. Ces bovins, par rapport à d'autres races d'Afrique de l'Est, ont démontré une certaine tolérance à la trypanosomiase. Ils ont des taux de morbidité et de mortalité inférieurs et requièrent moins de traitements. Un programme de sélection a été mis en place afin d'améliorer les caractéristiques de production de viande de ces bovins tout en conservant leur trypanotolérance. Les taureaux issus de ce programme de sélection sont aujourd'hui vendus aux éleveurs dans d'autres régions du Kenya infestées par la mouche tsé-tsé.

Extractions: About Us On Safari Safari Travel Sample Safaris ... Travel Tips To this day, East Africa remains the finest wildlife paradise on earth. Travelling through landscapes of staggering beauty, witnessing the fascinating traditional lifestyles of the indigenous peoples, living among the spectacular herds of game and sleeping under canvas beneath the vast African sky, stimulates all the senses; the never-to-be-forgotten experiences that provoke moments of profound reflection. As Mick Jagger wrote in our guest book, it Took me back. Africa takes people back to their roots, to childhood dreams of striped horses, spotted cats, and giraffe, creatures impossible to believe until you see them in their natural habitat, in the landscape where our own kind began. Robin Hurt Photo Safaris supports sustainable ecotourism and to this end we patronize community group ranches that promote conservation in such areas as Il Ngwesi and Namunyak in northern Kenya. Both Kenya and Tanzania are acclaimed for their political stability; the people are helpful and friendly, and officials, polite and courteous.
