It is with deep regret that the Letaba Section Ranger was forced to destroy a bull elephant that has been repeatedly breaking down the fence at Letaba Rest Camp. The animal was put down to avoid human casualties. KNP Management were on site today to assess infrastructure damage and assess the state of the Letaba camp. The KNP ME said that immediate steps will be put in place in the week to repair and strengthen fences which are being repeatedly broken.

Someone has to die before they decide to repair something which has been broken for ages 0=

Talking about maintenance to Kruger is talking to deaf ears @#$
