Rhino Poaching 2013

[Richprins]

He said 70% of the rhino killed in South Africa can be attributed to Mozambicans and a corresponding 68% of all poachers arrested in South Africa have been Mozambican citizens.

Not sure about those figures...and over what period of time the figures are from?

But good luck to him!

Haven't been on for a while...desperately wanted to escape Jhb and we were able to get a booking in the South the weekend of the 11th October. We specifically saw two rhinos sleeping on the side of one road and they were there for 2 - 3 days. Were they maybe drugged? They weren't interested in moving at all or barely opened an eye. I believe Monday 14th there were poaching in the area? At least, according to Radio Lowveld.

Hi Nyoni,

Let's hope they were ok.

According to a workshop today the amount of killings in Kruger stans now at 512.

If that is true we are now at 537
