Hey everyone, welcome back to the All American Wing Shooting podcast! I'm Anna V, and today we're hanging out with the amazing Sue Tidwell, a writer and fierce conservation advocate from the beautiful wilds of Idaho. We're going to chat about why conservation really matters in hunting, the unforgettable thrill of hunting in Africa, and how we all come together as a community. Sue's going to share her own journey from not hunting at all to becoming a major advocate for wildlife conservation. It's a heart-to-heart on how hunting supports conservation, especially in places like Africa, and why it's so important for us hunters to stick together, protect our rights, and keep passing on our knowledge. So, tune in as we jump into these topics and get inspired to make a difference!

After traveling to Africa with her husband on a hunting safari, Sue Tidwell discovered a story of how the people of Africa rely on hunting not only as a means for conservation, but to provide for their families and to deter poaching. Sue made a promise to help convey the message of why hunting and conservation is so important over there and shares that message in her book, "Cries of the Savanna". Be sure to check out this episode and grab a copy of Sue's book in print or listen to the audio version.

What moves you? What is it in your life that moves your soul and compels you to do something and work to make a difference? For Sue Tidwell it was when she accompanied her husband on a safari to Tanzania. As a non-hunter herself, she saw the passion of her husband and as she says in her book, "when you love someone, their dream becomes your dream." Together they flew to Tanzania so Rick could pursue his dream of hunting Africa. What happened on this trip changed Sue profoundly. She saw firsthand how hunting has transformed the lives of the people of Tanzania and beyond. How hunting saves species, how controlled hunting conserves the landscape, how hunting provides jobs, food and income for hundreds and thousands of people living in Africa. She saw first hand how sustained hunting of these beautiful animals has helped the people of these countries and animals around the world. In her book Cries of the Savanna, Sue captuers the thrill of the hunt and the essence of the people who make it all happen. From the tents to the bush to the relationships she has built with the people she encounters, Sue takes the reader along with her as she struggles to make sense of it all and writes convincenly and beautifully. Cries of the Savanna is one of the best books ever penned on hunting Africa and should rank as the highest apologetic work on hunting in the last 50 years. She is a gifted writer and this book is a must read for anyone who wants to hunt Africa. For anyone who questions the ethics of hunting, and for anyone studying conservation around the globe. www.suetidwell.com www.taurususa.com www.cva.com www.birddogcoffeebeans.com www.himtnjerky.com www.citrusafe.com www.elimishieldhunt.com www.nukemhunting.com www.christianoutdoors.org
Sue Tidwell, author of "Cries of the Savanna," passionately advocates for responsible hunting as a critical tool for conservation in Africa. Drawing from her experiences and research, she sheds light on the complex dynamics of wildlife management, emphasizing the necessity of understanding both sides of the conservation equation. With vivid anecdotes and a deep understanding of the local context, Tidwell highlights the challenges faced by African communities living alongside wildlife. She underscores the importance of involving local people in conservation efforts and ensuring that they benefit economically from wildlife resources. Tidwell debunks misconceptions surrounding hunting and poaching, emphasizing that many individuals engaged in poaching are driven by the need to provide for their families rather than malice. She stresses the value of well-managed hunting concessions in both preserving wildlife populations and supporting local livelihoods. In her advocacy, Tidwell confronts the notion that photo tourism alone can replace hunting revenue, pointing out its limitations in generating widespread economic benefits and its potential negative impact on wildlife and local communities. Throughout her discourse, Tidwell urges for a common-sense approach to conservation, acknowledging the importance of facts and statistics but also emphasizing the need to empathize with the realities faced by those living in wildlife-rich areas. Despite her seasoned background in hunting and conservation, Tidwell remains open to learning and engaging with others, actively seeking to spread awareness through various media platforms and welcoming dialogue with her audience. Through her book and ongoing advocacy efforts, Sue Tidwell seeks to foster a deeper understanding of the complexities of conservation in Africa and inspire meaningful action to safeguard both wildlife and human communities. https://www.suetidwell.com/ Wath the Documentary Here: https://youtu.be/yEmr1zGwi3g Buy me a coffee: www.buymeacoffee.com/Aptitudeoutdoor More Aptitude Outdoors here: https://bit.ly/2YLp82N
A hunting trip to Africa to explore Tanzania's wildlife, terrain and people greatly opened not only Sue Tidwell's eyes but her heart as well. Although having grown up in a hunting family, she never really grasped the importance of hunting in conservation not only of wildlife and habitat the the role it plays for the people of Africa until she accompanied her husband on an African hunting safari. Around today's campfire, Larry visits with Ms. Tidwell about what lead her to write her extremely popular “Cries of the Savanna” and why it is an important read for hunter and non-hunter, alike!

We sit down with Renée Thornton, Sue Tidwell, Jack Atcheson Jr., John Bair and Jana Waller to talk about predators on the landscape. All five of these individuals are tied closely to wildlife conservation and have a vested interest in making sure predators are managed with the utmost attention.John and Jana have served at the State level working with wildlife managers. Their perspective gives us valuable insight into how managers approach this issue and some of the levers that they can pull to assist with effective management on the landscape. We talk to Sue to gather a better understanding of her unique perspective having an understanding of predators in Africa and the effect they have on communities. Renée provides context on her passion for predator harvest and how the image of hunters is critical when it comes to this sensitive issue. Lastly, Jack Atcheson Jr. is an outfitter and international outfitting consultant who has dealt with predators in his home state of Montana and abroad. Jack weighs in on why and how predators need to be effectively managed.Predator management is always emotive so this one may ruffle some feathers. Regardless open discussion about wildlife management and its many facets needs to be discussed and we flesh out some of these challenging areas.Enjoy this episode of Talk is Sheep, the Official Podcast of the Wild Sheep Society of BC.

Sue Tidwell lived in awe of Africa's extraordinary wildlife. After years spent appreciating the animals in her imagination, the tenderhearted American hated the idea of joining her husband on a big game hunt. And getting attacked by blood-sucking tsetse flies the moment she stepped off the plane gave no hint of the mind-blowing change of perspective in her future… This podcast was filled with emotion and passion and truly one that will resonate in the hunting world.
Sue Tidwell is a multi-award-winning author whose thirst to explore wild places took her to the Tanzanian bush where she was infected with an extreme case of African fever, a condition that grips a person's heart like a vice and never lets go. Tidwell, in her debut title Cries of the Savanna, is determined to light that fire in the heart of her readers as well. If you enjoy the podcast, I'd really appreciate it if you drop us a review, share it with a friend, or find us on Instagram.Topics Discussed: Sue's evolution of thought from doubter to a staunch supporter of well-managed huntingHuman and wildlife conflict in AfricaPoaching's different targets in AfricaHow hunting protects habitatThe deficiency of photo-journalism to support wildlifeThe myth of non-consumptive tourismChasing RabbitsPurchase a copy of Sue's book on her website.

HuntFishTravel Podcast 218 - Sue Tidwell - Cries of the Savanna and an eye-opening adventure in Africa On this episode, I'm interviewing Sue Tidwell, author of self-published Cries of the Savanna, whose goal as a non-hunter is to make people fall in love with Africa. The book covers her terrifying, amazing, wonderful and scary adventure at Masimba Camp in Tanzania as a non-hunter. (She is not apposed to hunting). Tanzania is a remote area where the people welcome the hunters who give them the meat. The people never waste anything. They lack protein in their diet so they welcome the money (which goes for anti poaching) and meat the hunters supply. She explains about how hunting protects the habitat. They do not have the tools to hunt with, so they poison animals or set traps. She tells a story of brothers watching their herd who are attacked and his 2 brothers are eaten in from of him. She also writes about Lilian a Tanzian game scout who verifies all of her information in the book to be correct. It was a fascinating conversation about hunting Africa as well as the struggles a self-published author faces when going forward with a project like this. Links: Website Faceboook Page Amazon

Sue Tidwell, author of Cries of the Savanna, joins Sam on The Wild Initiative to share her love affair with hunting and conservation in Africa. Sue discusses growing up in a hunting family, but never hunting herself until she met her husband after moving to Alaska. A trip to Tanzania, in Africa, was her husband's dream, but Sue explains how, initially, she was strongly against pursuing several specific African species. However, her real-life experience in Africa gave her an outsider's understanding of why hunting and trophy fees are so crucial to African communities and conservation, and how anti-hunting and trophy import bans could negatively impact Africa. Sue explains how "No meat goes to waste in Africa" and takes us alongside her and her husband's Cape Buffalo "Dagga Boy" hunt. She tells Sam about her fantastic learning experiences with their hunting guides and 23-year-old female game scout. Sue will make you fall in love and want to fight for Africa.

There are LOTS of misconceptions about hunting in Africa. For instance, I get lots of comments from people that go something along the lines of: "I'm not a trophy hunter. I only hunt for meat and I don't see the point of hunting in Africa. That seems like just killing for fun." Unfortunately, that's an all too common viewpoint about hunting Africa with lots of negative consequences. Well, we have Cries of the Savanna author Sue Tidwell on the show with us today to help set the record straight. Show Sponsor: I highly recommend purchasing a copy of Cries of the Savanna.

Sue talks about her and her husband's experiences in Tanzania and Mozambique. Through hunting, Sue learned that conservation in Africa intricately relies on the hunting industry. She tells a story about how hunting changes the lives of the native people by providing food, money and goods when otherwise they would have no access.

Those of you who either read the excellent book “Cries of the Savanna” by Sue Tidwell or listened to the podcast episode with her are familiar with Lilian Mremi, a Game Scout and Tanzanian Wildlife Ranger. Shortly after the episode was published many of you expressed great interest in hearing directly from Lilian. I thought it would be an excellent idea and so today I am pleased to publish my conversation with her.During our conversation, we touched on all the usual topics such as human-wildlife conflict, national parks, game reserves, poaching, and law and regulations as they pertain to hunting. Of course, I did not forget to ask Lilian about her views on the deteriorating public opinion of hunting and on the attempts in the USA, UK and EU to pass legislation banning imports of hunting trophies. Finally, we discussed the differences between hunting tourism and non-extractive tourism. And her answers might not be exactly what some of you would expect.Of course, we have discussed these topics many times on my podcast. But in this episode, we have an opportunity to hear directly from a local Tanzanian ranger who lives and breathes these issues every day.Support the Podcast and Buy Me a Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/tommysoutdoorsRecommended Books: tommysoutdoors.com/booksHats and T-shirts: tommysoutdoors.com/shopFollow Tommy's Outdoors on Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok and Facebook See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In this episode, once again, we're going to take on the subject of hunting in Africa. Our guest is Sue Tidwell, the author of a wonderful book titled “Cries of the Savanna” that I reviewed in last week's blog post. And since I really liked the book I was itching for the opportunity to talk with Sue.We chat about a number of things. Why Sue decided to write and publish her first book. (Yes, as impressive as it is, it was Sue's first publication even though she had always been, in her own words, a hobby writer.) We also discuss how she researched and marketed the book. Something that, as you can imagine, was a completely new experience for a hobby writer.However, the bulk of our conversation focuses on stories from the book and the experience of a remote encampment deep in the Tanzanian bush. Sue shares how these events changed her perception of many important issues such as poaching and land management.Do yourself a favour and buy “Cries of the Savanna” using the link below.

Sue Tidwell has journey to share, and not just to Africa. She brings the perspective of someone who experienced some reservation about hunting to someone who advocates for it because of the value to conservation she witnessed first hand. She has gone from a pro-wolf advocate to a person who understands the necessity of wolf management. She offers us a unique, hard-hitting take on how hunting in Africa can save the African wildlife and how this learned philosophy can apply to North America. I really enjoyed this conversation with Sue. As hunters, we need more folks like her doing the hard work in hunting advocacy. Her book, Cries of the Savanna, is a must read for all hunters!
