African Wildlife Hunting & Conservation

​

East African Professional Hunter's Association (EAPHA)

 

The East African Professional Hunter's Association (EAPHA) was an organization of East African white hunters founded in Nairobi, Kenya in 1934. Their motto was ‘nec timor nec temeritas’ - "neither fear nor foolhardiness". During its existence it was able to accomplish much to conserve East African wildlife and become perhaps one of the most respected societies in the world of its kind. The Association was disbanded in 1977 when Kenya outlawed all big game hunting - “In Kenya, wildlife numbers have declined by 68% in the 40-year period from 1977 to 2016 both outside and inside protected areas.”1

Tanzania Professional Hunters Association (TPHA)

Tanzania Hunting Operators Association (TAHOA)

Its members have attained necessary levels of competence, skill and ethics required for the responsibility of a professional hunter. The TPHA and TAHOA stands together with pride, and not only distance itself, but stand-up against those who threaten the profession and wildlife with unethical and unprofessional conduct.
