I hope that Sanparks do not reveal the figures, because they are too ashamed. Maybe not saying anything we might forget about it, or even think that they are busy doing something about it.

Sanparks have this bad habit of hiding important things. Transparency is a word they do not know 0*\ What the heck they are earning so much money now, which means that everything is going just F I N E (0!)

Seems KZN seems to be becoming a hotspot this year O/
From SimonBloch on Facebook: The freshly-poached carcass of a white rhino has been discovered at a private Zululand reserve. This is the same property where poachers struck last week, killing a black rhino. The KZN total for the year now stands at 25 0= 0= At least KZN seems to be reporting numbers is one good thing ...
