Impacts of uncontrolled logging on the Miombo woodlands of the Niassa reserve in Mozambique.
Mozambique's Niassa Reserve contains Africa's best preserved miombo woodlands. Half of the households there gather wild honey from natural hives for consumption and income. However, most collectors used destructive techniques: setting fire to the grasses under the hive tree to create smoke and th...
