Honeyguide Birds Boost Harvests in Mozambique’s Niassa Reserve

In northern Mozambique’s Niassa Special Reserve, honey-hunters rely on honeyguide birds to locate approximately 75% of their annual honey harvest, according to a recent study. These small brown birds, known as greater honeyguides, lead hunters to wild bees’ nests, underscoring the economic significance of this unique partnership, especially in a region plagued by high hunger and poverty rates.

The collaborative hunt showcases the importance of traditional ecological knowledge, as honey-hunters employ distinctive calls to attract the birds. The study estimates that around 500 honey-hunters in Niassa collect 14,000 liters of honey annually, generating income exceeding $40,000 in 2023. Researchers suggest that this human-animal relationship could serve conservation efforts, as honey-hunters may help monitor illegal activities within the reserve.
