Taking another look at the Baboon management plan in Cape Town
Description
John Maytham speaks to Lynda Silk, Chairperson of the Cape Peninsula Civil Conservation (CPCC), an organisation that has been vocal about aspects of the plan and how they believe baboon management should be conducted differently. Lynda joins us to respond to yesterday’s interview with Sarah Warries and to offer an alternative perspective on what effective, humane, and community-aligned baboon management should look like.
Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists.
A daily highlight is Rapid Fire, just after 5:30 pm. CapeTalk fans call in, to stump the presenter with their general knowledge questions. Another firm favourite is the humorous Thursday crossing with award-winning journalist Rebecca Davis, called “Plan B”.
