Bushmeat
In much of Central Africa, eating wildlife is seen as a normal, desirable and common-sense
practice. Almost all wild animals, from the largest mammals to the smallest invertebrates, are
hunted, traded and consumed, providing vital income and nutrition for millions of people. But
as demand for bushmeat grows, animal populations are being decimated, directly impacting
biodiversity, local economies and public health.Taking an interdisciplinary
approach, Bushmeat explores questions ranging from deforestation and conservation
strategies to infectious diseases, urban street food and law enforcement. It explains how the
popularity of wild meat consumption has spread from rural areas into major cities, fuelled by
rapid urbanisation, poorly defined regulations, and developing trade networks-whether smallscale
and informal, or commercial and politically connected. While unsustainable hunting
practices pose clear problems for wildlife conservation, they also increase the risk of rural
food insecurity and of new infectious diseases emerging-as HIV, Ebola and Covid-19 have
shown. But cultural attachment to wild meat, and its dietary importance for many
communities, make the ‘bushmeat crisis’ difficult to solve.Based on extensive interviews and
a comprehensive review of secondary literature, Bushmeatpresents a startling account of one
of the Anthropocene’s catastrophes in the making.
