Snarewear Jewellery?


"...Adorned with seeds from native plants, these necklaces, anklets, and earrings are part of an effort by Community Markets for Conservation (COMACO) to halt poaching for meat in Zambia’s wildlife-rich Luangwa Valley by improving farming practices and the local economy.

The constricting wires choke or seriously injure just about any animal that crosses their path, including wildebeests, zebras, and even elephants. These wounded or dead animals, in turn, attract large carnivores, such as lions and wild dogs, which can become entangled in other traps lying nearby..."
