The last century has witnessed an unprecedented rate of urbanization in the developing countries. Normally because the rural areas cannot support the poor families$, they migrate to urban Centre seeking employment.
International migration has become the order of the day and people are on move more than ever before-evolving social networks, cultural linkages, and the emergence of transnationalism.
This paper is a draft of a case study intended to form part of my MA thesis. Please do not
quote from it in this form.
The focus of the MA is the particular expression of informal wildlife conservation in two KZN
conservancies.
