CareTakers is a documentary film project about South Africa's rich natural heritage, and the dedicated people who care for it.
In the face of overwhelming biodiversity loss, habitat degradation, and human-induced climate change, there is a pressing need for clear calls to effective action. These films are intended to educate, advocate and inspire people to become active parts of the solution.
Ek is so bly dat oom Koos die wit professor se mediese wetenskap so reggehelp het. As covid 19 nou weer deur die wit dokters behandel moet word, sal oom Koos hom reghelp en vertel dis net koors. Gee die pasiënt koorsbos en moet hom nie ,,jab,, nie. Sê vir die prof., hy moet nie die mense kom doodmaak nie. Hy moet terug Engeland toe.😢
Het die plantjies nie 😅 hulle maagte upset nie.Hulle moet nog videos maak van khoisan Plante medisyne .Is interessant hoe was julle magte.plante bevat chlorofil en die wortels bevat antibiotika amoer soos uie en gemmer. ROOTS is goed vir antibiotics.
Their is no remorse without retribution.Apartheid crimes was a genocide that continue with BEE.The conscious that created the problem cant be responsible for the solution to the problem.PA got my vote.We need God back in schools.Our first nation status must be compensated.
Ek is baie baie kwaad vir wat ek hier sien. Ons mense is vir jare goed vir al hulle talente....en met onse kennis word daar weggehardloop.... maar hulle kry nie kompanseering vir hulle kennis wat hulle gee nie. Mr. KOOS se kennis gaan nou verkoop word sonder betaling. Ma die dag gaan kom vir regstelling. Weet dit.
Prof. Ben and Prof. Tilney, I’m reminded of my time at UJ and how he used to talk about Prof Paul and other knowledge carriers like Credo Mutwa et al. I was and still inspired! Great documentary! ❤
The Snoek of False Bay used to come into the Bay in Big Numbers: From the Agulhas Banks: From October . Why ? Because October, is the month that the warm Agulhas Current would push into and cross the Agulhas Banks. The warm water push drives the Snoek into Slangkop to the Bellows, and Rocky Bank. Unfortunately the "Trawlers" have decimated the Breeding Stock. The Trawler also target Snoek on the western 200 meter side of the Agulhas Bank. 1998 to 2002 the Trawlers killed the Breeding Stock of Snoek: On South Bank: The Trawlers Targeted the Snoek. This is why the Snoek Biomass and Breeding Stock have now collapsed along the South African coastlines of the West Coast and Agulhas Banks.
It is very interesting to see this kind of development from this community i think more people should be encouraged, given land and farm to grow rural communities.
This is a very informative piece of work, this can be very helpful to Educators as a teaching Aid... perhaps a collaboration with the school departments of Education can have a regular newsletter with links to this kind of resource for Teachers and Students💯
I had the pleasure to visit the Rictersveld in 2002 on a botanical outing, it was life changing. After 120 rolls of photographs mostly shot in stereo I often look at them and can almost feel the heat, wind and smell the air, especially when rain or fog appeared. Absolutely magical, I know the excitement young James is feeling, at 66 i get that excited still. I wonder if the bulbine was ever identified as a new species, theres probably no greater thrill then finding a new species and I hope it came true for young James. Thanks for the hike, I almost felt i was there, cheers Ernst, I have your book on gasterias and met you in Tuson Arizona in 2009. Keep truckin man
Ek het so n week gelede deur die Richter's veld gereis ...wat n wonderlike plek baie dankie Oom Koos dat jy nog die ou kennis Kon deel met die Professor en met ons alle sterkte 💪
Really enjoying your documentaries and learning a lot from die ou mense. Just wanted to say that your title transition in 1:56 is very cool! Thank you and well done
Hoe op aarde wil hulle local vissermanne met daai comercial trawlers vergelyk? Dis nie altyd net markwaarde nie. Ons mense lewe generasie al van die see af. Nie vir 'n vismark in Shanghai nie. Mense met handlyne lewe in 'n ander paradigma as staalmonsters met massiewe nette! Gee ons mense 'n kans!
Reef species are not a sustainable source of revenue generating fish. They simply cannot reproduce and grow fast enough to maintain the rate at which they are removed from the water. FACT. Perhaps there should be a move to commercial farming of suitable species - such as cob and potentially other molluscs such as oysters and mussels.
The problem is nobody wants to eat the prickly pear leaves plant raw it just doesn't taste like anything. You're supposed take the thorns out of the tender plant leaves, score leaves top to bottom and them left to right, salt them very lightly, let them cook for a few minutes on both sides with a charcoal or propane grill outside or inside on griddle until soft then put them in any kind of beans or by themselves, add some mild or hot homemade salsa and you got yourself once of the best tasting, low cost and nutritious meals you can ever have. Put mixture inside local corn or flour flat bread variety for even better results😉 . Give it a few years to catch on and there is no invasion just plenty of well fed people.
Wow 'n fantastiese film en storie. Ek is so gelukkig dat jong mense hul geskiedenis soek, en hul ou mense vra om hul ervaarings te herinner. Loved Ouma and her skaapvel❤
Pragtig en baie dankie Oom Koos Paulse vir jou kosbare bydrae en almal betrokke. Ek is 'n ou Suidwes-kind wat op Okahandja grootgeword het en 1961 in WHS (Windhoek) matrikuleer het en vanaf 2001 in New Zealand woon.Dit doen my hart goed om hierdie aflewerings te kyk.

Many people found themselves in the battlefield against Apartheid. Not because of politics but due to its oppressive and violent nature. It was an attempt to strip people of their dignity and humanity. But here you find Oom Koos and his indomitable spirit. He has a wealth of indigenous knowledge. A walking encyclopaedia of Karoo botanical knowledge.
Baie van ons blankes het die bruinman verneder in ons daaglike omgang met hulle. Geslaan en gevloek. Dit was verkeerd! Dit het "apartheid" n slegte naam gegee. Sodra jy n man se menswaardigheid aantas is dit n groot sonde wat haat aanwakker. Die Engelse het dieselfde met die Boere gedoen.
These plants gets stripped from the veld and smuggled all over the world, we can even buy them here in Australia, not only Succulents but also Cycads what a shame.
Wonderful. I hope and trust this extends the longevity of trackers and their wellbeing over the long run. Appreciated! ps: I wish I knew who got the right answer to that one tracking question :)
