Many still do except they now use hunting rifles. There is a bit of bow
hunting too (compound & cross). Game farming is big business starting at
about R8000 for an Impala going up to about R20000 for an Eland. A friend of
mine recently "bought" a trophy Kudu for R12000 but only wounded it. After 2
days they couldn't find it so his money was lost! The San (Bushmen) are
mostly restricted the semi-desert regions of the Northern Cape, Botswana &
Namibia but they don't really live & hunt in the traditional way any more
(except for the tourists). They have all but lost their exceptional tracking
skills too. Much like the native Americans (Red Indians?) I suppose.

Subject: GESO: Mall Development
I tried something different today - a sort of cross between architectural
&
street. A couple on Mall Development Companies have been going around
the country building new malls & also converting/upgrading older store
blocks into malls. This is an upgrade. A new row of stores is being built
to the
south of the existing row & the whole thing roofed over to form a mall. We
already have a mini-mall but this will be massive by comparison. Wallmart
who trade here as Game will be moving in & will probably lead to the
demise
of many existing small enterprises. This is a brave essay considering the
economy is very depressed at the moment & one wonders where all the
customers will come from. On the positive side, the local construction &
engineering firms at least have contracts for a year or so. Shopping has
become a nightmare with the temporary acute shortage of parking.

All with the K7 & DA 18-55 WR on a warm (30C) sunny day.
