A bonus episode from the What in the World podcast. When it comes to elephant conservation, Botswana is the world leader. It is now home to more than 130,000 elephants — or around a third of the world's elephant population. But this growing number poses major problems for humans: the animals destroy homes and crops, and even injure and kill people. To manage its elephant population, Botswana allows so-called “trophy hunting”. Hunters from abroad pay for permits to shoot and kill elephants — and can then take a piece of the elephant home. Botswana then re-invests this income into conservation efforts. It's a controversial practice. Animal rights activists want Botswana's government to seek alternatives to trophy hunting, which they deem as cruel. And in Germany — Europe's biggest importer of African elephant trophies — the government has suggested there should be stricter limits on importing them. The president of Botswana recently threatened to send 20,000 elephants to Germany as part of the dispute. Shingai Nyoka, a BBC reporter in neighbouring Zimbabwe, explains the laws that govern trophy hunting and why they're up for debate. And John Murphy, a BBC News reporter in London, recounts his experience visiting an “elephant corridor” — regular routes taken by elephants in their daily commute between their feeding grounds on one side and water on the other.

Until the Ukraine War, Russia was Europe's biggest supplier of natural gas. After the invasion, political leaders wanted off Russian gas, and fast. So, they turned to the U.S. In part two, we follow American gas all the way to Germany — Europe's biggest energy consumer, where the energy crisis hit hardest. US LNG provided a lifeline for Germany. But what happens when a country gets hooked? “All Gassed Up” is a special 3-part series from Sea Change.

There has been another Red Sea attack near the Red Sea. This time it's a US-owned ship – the latest in a string of attacks by Houthi rebels in Yemen. Although nobody was injured, the attacks continue to disrupt trade around the world. Global shipping company Hapag Lloyd tells us how they are avoiding the route. Also on the programme, we look at Germany - Europe's largest economy. It contracted in 2023, due to persistent inflation, high energy prices and a weak foreign demand. Devina Gupta will be hearing what the country needs to do now to get going again. And as Taiwan elects a new government - we find out why China is fuming.
