...well in advance (in fact, several months ahead if you want the prized garden view from table 25), by calling (61-2) 9267 2900. SYDNEY FISH MARKET: With its genial bustle and cornucopia of produce, the Sydney Fish Market at Pyrmont embodies all that is good about Australian eating. Graze the stalls in the covered hall and choose as you fancy - staff will cook fish, slice sashimi or shuck oysters to order. Then go grab a cold, dry Riesling and a couple of plastic cups from the on-site wine shop before finding a picnic table on the dockside...

A herd of cows staggers ankle deep through greasy waters in Venice. A few miles north, horses graze amid dead fish and the hulks of beached shrimp trawlers...

Perhaps in the hamlet of Dargo, about 10 km to the east; or in Ersanoi, just up the road; or even right here in Dyshne-Vedeno itself, within sight of the ruins of his once sumptuous...
...humans to coexist. Adapting techniques from Masai tribesmen, who have herded cattle amid predators in this region for centuries, he is teaching ranchers to build taller, stronger bomas--traditional livestock pens made of thorn branches--to stop night-time raids by lions. When the herds are let out to graze during the day, they are accompanied by guards, some armed with rifles, which they fire into the air to keep the lions at a distance. Frank has calculated the cost to the ranchers for each lion on their property, including the guards' pay, the dogs, the extra fencing...
