Nes met die bontebok mag dit wees dat daarnog net enkele geneties suiwer bevolkingsswartneusrooibokke is. Die swartneusrooibokweeg effens swaarder en is groter as diegewone rooibok, en die stert is langer enmeer bosagtig.

WILDBOER VAN DIE JAAR
WRSA se lofwaardige projek om jaarliks die Wildboer
van die Jaar aan te wys, speel ’n baie groot rol in die
bevordering van doeltreffendheid in die produksie
van wild, wat op ekonomies volhoubare benutting gegrond is. Kandidate vir
hierdie prestigebenoeming moet voldoen aan die volgende beoordelingskrite-
ria: finansiële bestuur, bedryfbestuursplan, inkomstegenererende aktiwiteite,
besigheidkontinuïteitsplan, personeel, sosiale betrokkenheid, infrastruktuur en
algemene betrokkenheid by die wildbedryf en WRSA.
Die wenner, Pieter Lamprecht, asook die ander sewe finaliste is ware
ambassadeurs vir die wildbedryf, wie se voorbeeld deur baie wildboere en
veral nuwe toetreders gevolg kan word. Benewens die kriteria wat gestel
word vir die Wildboer van die Jaar-kompetisie en wat as algemene riglyn in
die bedryf beskou kan word, moedig WRSA uitmuntendheid verder aan deur
ook toekennings te maak aan drie wildboere vir prestasie ten opsigte van bio-
diversiteit en sosiale verantwoordelikheid, groen ekonomie en teler van die
jaar.
As jagondernemer / wildteler erken Pieter dat die jag- en teelbedryf hand
aan hand loop. Hieruit kan ’n mens aflei dat suksesvolle wildboerdery ook
sorg vir voldoende jaggeleenthede in die toekoms vir die jagters van Suid-
Afrika en die buiteland. Sy nugter advies aan nuwe toetreders tot die wild-
boerderybedryf is dat hulle nie te lank moet wag voor hulle die bedryf betree
nie, want geleenthede gaan verby. Hy is positief oor die nodigheid om meer
opkomende boere te identifiseer en ’n deel van die bedryf te maak en toon so
ook sy sosiale verantwoordelikheid.
Met mense soos Pieter en die ander finaliste in sy geledere, is die wild-
boerderybedryf ongetwyfeld op pad na nog verdere hoogtes.
GAME RANCHER OF THE YEAR
The laudable project of WRSA, namely the annual nomination of the Game
Rancher of the Year, plays a significant role in promoting the efficiency of
game production, which is based on sustainable utilisation. Candidates for
this prestigious nomination have to comply with the following criteria: financial
management, business management plan, income-generating activities, busi-
ness continuity plan, staff, social involvement, infrastructure, and general
involvement in the game industry and WRSA.
The winner, Pieter Lamprecht, and the other seven finalists are true
ambassadors for the game industry, an example that should be followed by
many game ranchers and especially newcomers to the industry. Apart from
the criteria of the Game Rancher of the Year competition, which could be
regarded as a general guideline for the industry, WRSA further encourages
excellence by also presenting awards to three game ranchers for achieve-
ments with regard to biodiversity and social responsibility, green economy,
and breeder of the year.
As hunting outfitter / game breeder, Pieter acknowledges that the hunting
and breeding industry go hand in hand. It can therefore be concluded that
successful game ranching will also ensure sufficient hunting opportunities in
future for hunters from South Africa as well as abroad. His sober advice to
newcomers to the game-ranching industry is that they should not wait too
long before entering the industry, as opportunities could be missed. He is pos-
itive about the need to identify more emerging farmers and make them part of
the industry – proof of his social responsibility.
With people such as Pieter and the other
finalists in its ranks, the game-ranching indus-
try is definitely set to reach further heights.
