Xavier HUBERT-BRIERRE enjoyed a 30-years career in Gabon at the head of a chain of more than hundred sales outlets across this Central African country, which is as big as the United Kingdom but has a population of only two million, mainly living in its large cities. The role involved travel within remote areas, always accompanied by his wife, Anne-Marie. For thousands of miles on tracks through the rainforest, they rarely encountered wild animals because they are very shy and will lurk in the vegetation when a vehicle approaches. Fortunately, Gabon has 13 national parks. So, they often stopped there at weekends to meet these animals. This infused them with the desire to explore the wildlife further, by setting up motion-sensor camera traps in a mosaic of rainforest, savannah, mangrove forest and wetland vegetation habitats, which offer a surprising variety of wildlife.

Xavier HUBERT-BRIERRE a fait carrière pendant près de 30 ans au Gabon, où il dirigeait une chaîne de plus d'une centaine de points de vente à travers de ce pays d’Afrique centrale, grand comme le Royaume Uni mais peuplé que de deux millions d’habitants, résidents principalement dans ses grandes villes. Ce travail l'a conduit, toujours accompagné de son épouse, Anne-Marie, dans des régions reculées du Gabon. Pendant des milliers de kilomètres sur des pistes à travers la forêt pluvieuse, ils ne rencontraient que rarement des animaux sauvages car très craintifs, se tapissant dans la végétation à l’approche d’un véhicule. Heureusement le Gabon est doté de 13 parcs nationaux. Ils s’y arrêtaient souvent les week-ends pour rencontrer ces animaux. Cela leur a donné envie d'explorer davantage la faune en installant des pièges à caméra à détecteur de mouvement, dans une mosaïque d'habitats de forêt tropicale, de savane, de forêt de mangrove et de végétation de zone humide, qui offrent une surprenante variété d'animaux sauvages.

O papel envolvido é viajar dentro de áreas remotas, sempre acompanhado pela sua esposa, Anne-Marie. Durante milhares de quilómetros em caminhos através da floresta tropical, raramente encontraram animais selvagens porque são muito tímidos e espreitam na vegetação quando um veículo se aproxima. Felizmente, o Gabão tem 13 parques nacionais. Assim, muitas vezes param lá nos fins de semana para se encontrarem com estes animais. Isto infundiu-lhes o desejo de explorar mais a vida selvagem, instalando armadilhas fotográficas com sensores de movimento num mosaico de floresta tropical, savana, manguezal e habitats de vegetação de zonas húmidas, que oferecem uma surpreendente variedade de vida selvagem.

Ксавье Юбер-Бриерре в течение 30 лет работал в Габоне во главе сети из более чем ста торговых точек по всей этой центральноафриканской стране, которая по площади не уступает Великобритании, но имеет население всего два миллиона человек, проживающих в основном в крупных городах. Эта роль предполагала поездки в отдаленные районы, причем его всегда сопровождала жена Анна-Мария. На протяжении тысяч миль по тропам через тропические леса они редко встречали диких животных, поскольку те очень пугливы и при приближении автомобиля затаиваются в растительности. К счастью, в Габоне есть 13 национальных парков. Поэтому они часто останавливались там по выходным, чтобы встретиться с этими животными. Это вдохновило их на дальнейшее изучение дикой природы: они установили камеры-ловушки с датчиками движения в мозаике тропических лесов, саванн, мангровых лесов и болотной растительности, которые предлагают удивительное разнообразие диких животных.

Anne-Marie and Xavier HUBERT-BRIERRE along with Michel GUISS DJOMOU have set up very large mirrors in a forest in the west of Gabon. (250 cm x 122 cm). In this natural and uncontrolled environment numerous camera traps have been placed in front of each of these mirrors in order to film animals’ reactions to their own reflection from different angles and at different distances. Over the past few months an imposing male leopard has become addicted to his reflection. These huge mirrors are installed in his domain. He refuses to share them with other wild animals and does not hesitate to face a mother elephant and her children.
Some of my subscribers regretting that my videos are not long enough this video contains all the leopard's trap camera shots (assembled end to end) in front of this mirror from 13 PM before his meeting with elephants, during the face to face and after until he left the mirror at 23PM
Also if two short versions taken by two trap cameras of different brands and under slightly different angles of view, have already been published on my channel, https://youtu.be/UZAO_07GdSs
https://youtu.be/taoJDXZQx5s
At 15:43 It's the cry of a monkey sitting safely in the big tree above the mirror. A few seconds later you can see the image move slightly because the monkey's movements in the tree caused a small dead branch to fall on the camera pole and then a few leaves fall to the ground in the camera's field of view. You can hear several warning messages (han-han / han-han) of this monkey to warn his congeners of the presence of a predator (the leopard) at the base of the tree where the mirror is set up.

Anne-Marie y Xavier HUBERT-BRIERRE con Michel GUISS DJOMOU instalaron espejos muy grandes en un bosque del oeste de Gabón. En este entorno natural e incontrolado, se colocaron múltiples trampas fotográficas delante de cada uno de estos espejos para filmar, desde diferentes ángulos y a diferentes distancias, las reacciones de los animales a su reflejo. Con el paso de los meses, una imponente pantera masculina se hizo adicta a su reflejo. Como estos grandes espejos están plantados en su dominio, se niega a compartirlos con otros animales salvajes y no duda en enfrentarse a una madre elefante acompañada de sus hijos.
Algunos de los suscriptores de mi canal lamentan que mis videos no sean lo suficientemente largos. Por eso este video contiene todas las tomas (ensambladas de punta a punta) de este felino frente a este espejo desde la 1:00 pm, antes de su encuentro con los elefantes, durante el cara a cara y después hasta su salida del espejo a las 11:00 pm.
También una segunda versión corta tomada por otra cámara trampa de otra marca y desde un ángulo de visión ligeramente diferente fue publicada en mi canal, https://youtu.be/taoJDXZQx5s
15:43, un mono sentado en el árbol sobre el espejo hace que una rama muerta caiga sobre el poste de la cámara y que algunas hojas caigan al suelo en el campo de visión de la cámara. Por han-han / han-han este mono advierte a sus compañeros del peligro

Anne-Marie et Xavier HUBERT-BRIERRE avec Michel GUISS DJOMOU ont installé de très grands miroirs dans une forêt à l’ouest du Gabon. Dans cet environnement naturel et incontrôlé, de multiples des pièges photographiques ont été placés devant chacun de ces miroirs afin de filmer sous différents angles et à différentes distances, les réactions des animaux face à leur reflet. Les mois passant, un imposant mâle panthère est devenu addict à son reflet. Ces miroirs de grandes tailles étant plantés dans son domaine, il refuse carrément de les partager avec les autres animaux sauvages et n’hésite à faire face à une mère éléphant accompagnée de ses enfants.
Certains des abonnés à ma chaine regrettent que mes vidéos ne soient pas assez longues. Pour cette raison cette vidéo contient toutes les prises de vue (assemblées bout à bout) de ce félin devant ce miroir depuis 1h de l'après-midi, avant sa rencontre avec les éléphants, pendant le face à face et après jusqu'à son départ du miroir à 23h.
Egalement une seconde version courte prise par une autre caméra piège d'une autre marque et sous un angle de vue légèrement différent, a été publiée sur ma chaîne, https://youtu.be/taoJDXZQx5s
À 15:43, c'est le cri d'un singe assis en sécurité dans ce grand arbre au-dessus du miroir. Quelques secondes plus tard, vous pouvez voir l'image bouger légèrement car les mouvements du singe dans l'arbre ont provoqué la chute d'une petite branche morte sur le poteau de la caméra, puis de quelques feuilles au sol dans le champ de vision de la caméra. Vous pouvez entendre plusieurs messages d'avertissement (han-han / han-han) de ce singe pour prévenir ses congénères de la présence d'un prédateur (le léopard) au pied de l'arbre où est installé le miroir.

This video is about animals of the Gabon in the Congo basin rainforest. Filmed at Yatouga field site in Loango National Park in Gabon. Watch gorillas, monkeys, elephants, beautiful birds and a wide range of strange creatures.

In a remote area of the Gabonese forest, 12 km from the equator and 10 km from the Atlantic Ocean, outside a national park, Anne-Marie et Xavier Hubert-Brierre have been observing the reaction of wild animals as they catch sight of themselves in large mirrors (250cm x 120cm) with motion sensors camera traps the couple installed 9 years ago. This innovative idea attracted the attention of primatologists, behaviour specialists whose studies on self recognition have, until now, been carried out in laboratories, on wild animals in captivity who are accustomed to the presence of humans. Wild animals come and go as they please in front of our mirrors and stay as they like both day and night.
For humans self recognition is not immediate: in the case of the very young child a period of “mirror training” guided by the reassurance of the mother is necessary.
For wild animals who haven't had this mirror training, nor possess the use of language to guide and reassure their child, self recognition is much more difficult.
Let's take the example of a gorillas family: Adult males see their reflection as a stranger come to seize his females. Young animals, on the other hand, see their reflection as a friend and companion. They don't hesitate to touch the surface of the mirror or reach behind the mirror in an effort to touch the image. Rebekah, a young student of Professor Jim Anderson, of the University of Sterling in Scotland, concluded her researched, based on our videos of a young male gorilla in front of our mirrors by stating, “this gorilla has demonstrated the ability to recognise himself.” Translated by Robin Alcorn
*In felines, while lions are programmed to live in large family groups (pride), male leopards are genetically programmed to live alone, to live without any female (except during mating periods) and without their own offspring and therefore to be single throughout his life. So this male leopard is a solitary and territorial animal. He occupies a territory that overlaps a few smaller female territories. He doesn't feel alone and dont search an odourless mate. He doesn't need any friend, any lifepartner. These mirrors break a certain sameness in his life in the rain forest. Front of them This male leopard behaviour changes from one minute to the next, of desire for company, of desire to fight with a rival, an intruder in his territory who strangely has no smell and is mute. This leopard was clearly drawn to and interested in the mirror, rubs himself on the mirror because may be a female leopard in estrus did it earlier leaving her scent? He only meets females during the mating season. To invite the females in heat, he emits a guttural sound called " sawing call ". This call also warns rival males not to enter his domain:* https://youtu.be/RLus4bTWzfM
*For leopard fanatics,* (Panthera pardus and not Panthera onca (jaguar) only found on the American continent where no elephants are found on this continent) *I publish a 19-minutes long video* containing all the leopard's trap camera shots (assembled end to end) in front of this mirror from 13 PM before his meeting with elephants, during the face to face and after until he left the mirror at 23PM
https://youtu.be/aYkF84-adOo
Also *a second short version* taken by another trap camera of a different brands and *under slightly different angle of view,* have already been published on my channel, https://youtu.be/taoJDXZQx5s
On our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/XHB06400CANNES/videos are published more than 180 videos captured by our trap cameras fixed in the Gabon jungle. The majority of them show encounters of wild animals with our 6 large mirrors. After watching each of our videos, don't forget to read the description in english attached to learn more about the behaviour of the animals in front of their reflection.

Loango national park, located in the southwest of the country, is perhaps the most emblematic of the Gabonese national parks. 1,500 square kilometers of beaches, lagoons, mangrove swamps and forests have earned Loango the nickname of the last African Eden.

Sonia, a Spanish primatologist , arrived at Loango national park about three months ago. With her, we discover all the emblematic animals of the park.

Ethiopia, famed as coffee's birthplace and uncolonized African country, holds a treasure of legends. Here, lions transcend their wild nature, becoming symbols of bravery and strength, deeply interwoven into the nation's spirit.

Embracing untamed companionship, Ethiopians formed bonds with lions. These majestic creatures evolved alongside humans, their roars blending with laughter.

In the regal courts, emperors like Tewodros and Menelik II cherished lions, while Empress Zewditu and Emperor Haile Selassie continued this tradition. The lions embodied Judah, symbolizing Ethiopia's lineage from the Israelite Royal House, through King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba.

Across history, lions' courage was celebrated in ceremonies, and their symbols adorned coins, stamps, and seals. European references mirrored their might. The Lion of the Tribe of Judah echoed through time, inspiring within Ethiopia and beyond.

Ethiopia Meat and live animal exports account for close to 50 percent of the country's exports. Ethiopia is putting in more money into the industry to solidify the its position as a leading meat and animal exporter as well as cash in on the growing market for animal products. CCTV's Girum Chala reports.

On December 24, 2019, SAFE Project and the Dembecha Woreda Livestock Resource Development Office jointly organized a “Cattle Fattening Fair”. Hundreds of oxen well fattened for the Gena holiday came out in the field. Local butchery owners, restaurant managers, localities who plan to jointly slaughter an ox for the holiday, traders who supply even to Addis Ababa, government officials, livestock experts, and many more stakeholders attended the fair.

Visiting Ethiopia is a true adventure. Historic churches and monuments, ancient traditions and tribal communities, colourful festivals, sweeping views, extraordinary bio-diversity, and the best coffee you'll ever taste. Totally different from its more popular East African neighbours, it's a wild, wonderful, unpredictable land.

Historic Monuments
Ethiopia's cultural heritage is all around you - from the statues and monuments, to the ancient buildings and traditions. It's the only African nation never to be colonised by a European empire (although it was briefly occupied by Mussolini - Ethiopians still use 'ciao' as their goodbye!).

Ethiopia's rich history is best understood by visiting the country and seeing the ancient monuments - stood firm for centuries - towering above. The famous rock-hewn churches of Lalibela, centuries-old and still in use today, are one of Ethiopia's most cultural and historically important sites.

Continue exploring to find the Fasil Ghebbi fortress complex in Gonder, and the ancient towering Obelisks in the old capital of Axum. Keep going and you'll find Harar, with her maze of cobbled streets and stone walls, mosques, and hyenas!
Beautiful Landscapes
Ethiopia has some of the most staggering vistas anywhere on the continent. The Ethiopian highlands are famous for being one of the largest areas of continuous highlands anywhere on the continent - and over 60% of all of East Africa's highlands are found in Ethiopia.

The Simien Mountains National Park are one of the country's most spectacular mountain ranges, and if you head south, the Bale Mountains National Park are one of the country's best wildlife destinations and the best place to find the endemic Ethiopian Wolf.

A short excursion from the picturesque lakeside town of Bahir Dar is the Blue Nile Falls, one of Africa’s most impressive waterfalls.
Biodiversity
There is plenty of wildlife to be found in Ethiopia, and the country has an impressive number of endemic species. The iconic and endangered Ethiopian Wolf can only be found here, and it remains the rarest canid in the world, but sightings are common in the Bale Mountains.

In the Simien Mountains, you'll find other endemics like the Walia Ibex - giant mountain goats with massive horns - black-maned lions (rarely seen) and mountain nyala. Most famous of all is the Gelada Monkey, or 'bleeding heart monkey'. This iconic animal is found only in Ethiopia, and you'll see them in large troops playing on the fields in the Simiens.

If you head to Gambella National Park, you'll find savannah-roaming species like elephants, zebra, wildebeests, buffalo, and giraffes. In Harar, you can feed the hyenas that roam outside the city walls.

In the lakes of Ethiopia, you'll find crocodiles, hippos, and pelicans - and a diversity of birdlife, including the white-cheeked Turaco, the blue-winged Goose and the Rouget's Rail. The Cradle of Humanity
Lucy (known locally as Dinknesh), the skeleton of an early hominin species dating back more than 3.2 million years, was discovered in Ethiopia in 1974, and she wasn't the first of her kind to be found in the country.

This has led many to believe that humanity first evolved from our primate ancestors in ancient Ethiopia. The Awash Valley and Omo Valley are deemed important palaeontological sites by UNESCO, and a replica of ‘Lucy’ can be seen in the country’s National Museum. Festivals & Celebrations
Ethiopia has a vibrant festival calendar. The most famous celebrations are Ethiopian Christmas (also known as Leddet or Genna) on the 7th January every year, and the Timket festival (also known as Epiphany) on the 19th January. In September, there are the festivals of Enkutatash (Ethiopian new year) on 11th September, and Meskel (finding of the true cross) on 27th September.

The country really comes alive during these festivals, and if you're lucky enough to be in Addis, Gonder, or Lalibela during these events, you'll be part of a lucky few who have experienced first-hand a central tenant of Ethiopian culture.

The Adwa celebrations every year commemorate the anniversary of Ethiopia’s successful defeat of invading Italian forces in 1896 and involve men dressed in traditional costumes of lion mane collars and warriors’ headdresses dancing in main city squares. Coffee Ceremonies
Coffee ceremonies, a tradition passed down through centuries, are famous in Ethiopia. The country is the birthplace of coffee, and they make it better than anyone.
