When we went to Africa is was uncomfortable. unless the staff is local, with good jobs, it is hard to look them in the eyes.

Locally, we are better integrated.

When someone serves you, there is generally a power/status difference which exposes exploitation. As to poaching, it has been shown that Eco-tourism and support for local conservation jobs helps.
