Whistleblowers have experience working at Ortello — sometimes spelled Otterlo — Business Corporation (OBC), a UAE -based company that runs shoots in Loliondo , northern Tanzania .
They report that some of these trips culminated in live animals being flown abroad.
Exports of live wildlife have been outlawed in Tanzania since 2016 to protect rare animals and birds.
Tanzanian authorities have served waves of eviction notices affecting Maasai herders.
Conservationist says he saw a member of Dubai ’s royal family shoot a giraffe that wandered too close to the hunting lodge.
The Masai giraffe ( Giraffa tippelskirchi) is listed as endangered on the IUCN Red List.
The penalty for killing a female giraffe in Tanzania includes fines of up to $15,000 .
The UAE elite's hunts began in 1992 , when Tanzanian government leased a 4,000 -km2 ( 1,544 -mi2) area of land in Loliondo to an UAE national.
It became a multipurpose area for hunts, conservation and pastoralism.
OBC's hunting license was revoked in late 2017 amid further bribery and corruption allegations.
