The figures for the NW Province would apparently reflect the resurrection of 6 rhino that were dead!!! How is it possible to believe any of the figures that the DEA is responsible for releasing to the public when they can make huge mistakes like this.

As for the statement by aunty edna that since the sale of the elephant ivory there has been no more problem with elephant poaching - so you see trade works. Its frighteningly like she is trying to convince herself along with all her counterparts that there is money to be made with a hand in the cookie jar. The gravy train is running off the tracks on our wildlife which makes us no better than the terrorist organisations to the North who fund their nefarious activities on the trade of ivory and rhino horn. When we have no tourism left at all maybe the govt will wake up as right now given the status quo many of us are losing hope very fast!
