“If we march into that village and we start trying to persecute people for using poison, something that's very illegal, nobody's going to talk to us. We're not going to find out where the poison came from. We're not going to be able to shut anything down. We should take the approach that people are using poison because they're desperate, because they see no other alternative.” – Andrew Stein Andrew Stein is a wildlife ecologist who spent the past 25 years studying human carnivore conflict from African wild dogs and lions in Kenya and Botswana to leopards and hyenas in Namibia.

2018 was another busy year for the team at Scania and we kept you updated with the latest Scania news right through the year. The launch of a new-generation Scania truck was certainly one of the highlights of the Scania year, however both in Australia and on the global stage, Scania made some big strides on a number of fronts.

There's a lot going on at Scania Australia as we head into the new year, especially in the bus/coach division. Sure, much of the focus in 2018 was the local arrival of the new-generation Scania trucks, but there's brand new product for bus and coach buyers too.

There's a record amount of new trucks being purchased, but what is the best way to finance a new truck? Can a finance provider help you with more than just arranging the capital to get that new vehicle(s) on your fleet? Is a lease the way to go? A standard vehicle loan? Can you finance annual running costs too? And what about when it's time to trade your truck(s) in? We thought we should find out more about truck finance and the seemingly many different options that are open to operators. Rhys Henderson is the Country Manager of Scania Finance Australia and he was kind enough to give us some time for a chat...…

There's an updated and improved version of the Isuzu N-Series light-duty truck arriving in dealerships now.
