Something is very wrong.
They do not always tell us about rhinos being poached.
They just dump the figures on us.

Re: Rhino Poaching 2013
From Allison Thomson
"Just had a very interesting phone call. Apparently Sabi Sands have lost 36 rhinos this year alone!!!!!! How do those 36 fit into the stats - are they being shown in the stats even? I doubt it. I find this very very worrying. Essentially those rhinos are mostly KNP rhinos - no matter what Sabi tells you about them introducing rhinos etc - there are no fences and the rhinos wander from KNP into Sabi Sands and out again as they wish."

The fact that the stats can fe faaaaar more than it actually is, where will this all end?

Un bloody believeable - and when one posts what you think is an update you have some referring your to other media statements. Lets be brutally honest we will NEVER be told the whole truth!
