Research and documentation for real solutions:
     No animals were harmed and no persons were paid to hunt or to set snares for this research and photography. All events documented took place as they would have, and as they are taking place elsewhere, with or without the presence of researcher or photographer. Individuals in these photos shared their secrets: in support of conservation, knowing that the bushmeat trade is not sustainable, and hoping to find better ways to live.


Any and all uses of: “Hal Noss images of individuals engaged in, or relating to, the illegal use of cable snares,” are bound by agreements made with all parties concerned before these photographs were made. All parties agreed that: 1. The full and true identities of these individuals will not be revealed, and: 2. These individuals will suffer no ill consequences as a result of their participation in this study on their hunting methods, bushmeat harvesting, or for allowing Hal Noss to photograph their activities. Parties who agreed to allow this research on the hunting practices being used in and around the Ndoki National Park in the Central African Republic, permitting research of both legal and illegal hunting methods, include but are not limited to: the staff and management of Dzanga-Ndoki National Park, major conservation organizations representing major international donor organizations, the government of the Central African Republic, individual researchers, each individual photographed, and the general population of Bayanga.
