Fungal Diversity and Potential Health Benefits of Mycophagy in Chacma Baboons ( Papio ursinus )
Humans have consumed mushrooms for food and medicine for thousands of years, yet mycophagy remains understudied among our closest relatives, the nonhuman primates. Some species of primates feature fungi prominently in their diets, in terms of food budget or fungal diversity. Most primate species, however, are observed feeding on a general category of mushrooms for a minority of time feeding and the level of detail in reporting varies widely. In t…
The psychosocial well-being of a “forgotten” South African community
This study investigated the psychosocial well-being of an indigenous cultural community in South Africa, using a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design. Data on life satisfaction and emotional, social and psychological well-being were collected from 521 local residents (48% female) of Ndumo in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa using the Satisfaction-with-Life Scale and Mental Health Continuum. In addition, interviews were conducted with 20 Ndumo r…
Disaster recovery experiences of a South African rural farming community
This study explored the bush fire disaster experiences and coping of South African farmers. Participants consisted of seven male farmers (6 = White Afrikaans-speaking; 1 = Black Tswana-speaking). Data were collected using semi-structured interviews, nine months after the disaster, and analysed thematically. The findings showed that the farmers’ recovery was characterised by three distinct, transitioning phases. The first period involved resource-…
An Intervention Program Based on Plant Surrogates as Alternatives to the Use of Southern Ground-Hornbills in Cultural Practices
The Southern Ground-Hornbill (SGH) (Bucorvus leadbeateri Vigors, 1825) is a globally threatened bird. The least studied and addressed threat facing the SGH is its use in traditional African cultural practices. This study aimed to develop and refine an intervention program based on the use of plant surrogates as alternatives to the use of SGHs in such practices. Following a grounded-action research approach, a preliminary week-long program was dev…
An exploration of cultural beliefs and practices across the Southern Ground-Hornbill's range in Africa
Knowledge about the use of the SGH in cultural practices can contribute to conservation efforts in at least two significant ways: Firstly, beliefs and practices that were identified in this study as having potentially protective consequences for the SGH can now be specifically targeted and strengthened in future interventions. Secondly, destructive beliefs and practices that were identified can now be changed by means of the implementation of an …
