RE: According to new research, armed conflict is the best predictor of decline of wildlife in Africa, much more so than mining, corrupt governments or urban development

Thank you, @janusface!

I see why you think of it as cumbersome; most research today is researching extremely tiny parts of a larger system, and it can be pretty challenging to piece it together to see the big picture.

The bush meat industry is pretty interesting to look at, because it does not only affect areas that are affected by war. I can't link a source about it, but I remember reading even export of bush meat had increased in the last few years, because people wanted this taste even after moving away from their home country where they got to know it.
