Poachers? In the Lado in the early 1900s? And poaching what from who, I beg to know?

King Leopold was busy plundering the whole of the Congo for himself, the Brits, French, Germans, Portuguese, and Italians were competing with each other to lay their hands on the natural resources of the Continent, and none of them gave a damn about the inhabitants of the land. Who owned the game? Which European, no matter his flag of allegiance, had the right to look any other European in the eyes and tell him "These animals belong to me and my people, and you're an outlaw"?

The white hunters of the day were rogues, maybe, but they had balls that wouldn't fit in most other men's pants, and they usually worked with the locals, not against them. One of the reasons of their success (for those who did succeed...) was that they earned the respect and trust of the local tribes and rulers, and they hunted with their approval.

So, who is the poacher, and who is the plunderer?
