Re: Rhino Poaching
Final "score" from the DEA came through today.
668
South Africa can better be re- named into Killing Fields after last years total.
In the first 11 days of December alone a total of 30 Rhino has been killed in Kruger.
Sickening.

Re: Rhino Poaching
And lo and behold.
Arrest figures are going down while poaching figures are rising at speed.
Only 39 arrests made in Kruger?
Is tat telling us something?

Sometimes it’s not until you don’t see what you want to see, that you truly open your eyes.

Re: Rhino Poaching
Did you 2 had too many of Charlies juice?
Exactly as I said it just to give an example as to how many ellies can be poached within a few days.
Mabunda may speak nice words and what not, but the fact remains that what he is doing is not working diddly squat.

Re: Rhino Poaching
On the 1 Jan an anti-poaching group with soldiers on the back of the vehicle came driving passed us with flashing lights towards Orpen gate about 15 km from Orpen camp. Maybe I can not make assumptions but it does not seems as if they were looking for the poachers in Mozambique.Sprocky wrote:I wish I could say, I wish this wasn't true!!Penga Ndlovu wrote:(2) 01 Jan 2013: 2 Rhino - KNP Houtboschrand area (suspected staff involvement)

Actually talking about Ellies here while typing it.
Kruger lost 30 in 11 days in December!!!!! That is truly shocking considering December is a very busy tourist time in the park!
