Re: Rhino Poaching 2014
Looks to be heading over 1000 again this year, and Kruger looks bad...more poached and less arrests so far!
I put it to you that Kruger's antipoaching are becoming demoralised...

Been saying that for the last 3 years now.
More rhino's posached every year with the amount of poachers arrested/ killed every year and you will see an increase on year to year basis of poached rhino's against arrested/ killed poachers.
All that big phoe haa that we are slowly winning the war.
Bwahahaha.
We are loosing the war big time

Re: Rhino Poaching 2014
Yah , I wonder what the General thinks about this ?
Kruger has lost more rhinos during the 18 months under his command , than in the previous three years together , without the slightest sign of slow-down in the killing spree
