How come? There cannot be in-breeding by now, they have moved around all the males :-?

So what they said about "natural" are only words!

It's more about generation of surplus high value game than restoring natural processes under a minimum interference philosophy.

A highly unnatural place divided in sections, lots of unnatural water supply, contraception and culling instead of natural predation 0*\

Selling buffalo makes more money than tourists visiting, with vast majority being day visitors.
