Why has nobody been prosecuted for elephant, lion, leopard and poaching of other animalsThe illegal killing of elephants occurred mostly in the Kruger National Park (KNP), and no one had been prosecuted for the poaching of elephants. There had been about 72 seizures of ivory in the form of products, tusks and pieces between 2015 and 2019. About 154 lions were killed between 2016 and 2020 for traditional and medicinal purpose, while leopards were mostly killed for traditional attire.

Re: Annual Rhino Plan - Update on Elephant Master Plan - wild life economy
This part has no sense to meLastly, on the issues of translocation costs, the DEFF and SANParks were engaged in taking care of the translocation themselves because they wanted professionalism, and could not just outsource the animals and leave them to die in trucks because of dehydration and malnutrition. They wanted to make sure that the process was done properly in the initial stages. The CEO added that in future, these typical costs could be avoided by involving the private sector in the deliveries.
First he says that they do it themselves because the translocation must be done by professionals and then he finishes by saying that in the future il will be outsourced Why would it cost less done by the private sector? I would think that it is the other way around
