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

What the heck they are earning so much money now, which means that everything is going just F I N E

SP direct queries to the Department, as per instructions! The Minister is the cagey one...actually her handlers....

Seems KZN seems to be becoming a hotspot this year
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

At least KZN seems to be reporting numbers is one good thing ...

Ja, Roger! They are naughty, as Minister said National figures would be released when it pleases .gov....as though that would change anything?
