Re: Rhino Poaching
Sad thing is we suspect of a few killings in the Kruger, but we cannot get any info on this. 
If you hear of anything please let me know.

Re: Rhino Poaching
I have just heard a "rumour" that there were a few poached in KNP on new years day. Lets hope this is not true!!

Re: Rhino Poaching
Murder count going up fast as the reports starts trickling in.

06/01/13 Conserv resports 1 white rhino poached in NW. Carcass approx 5 days old...news of 2 other carcasses as well, same age. - Although it sounds like this report is all from the same reserve it appears from discussions with the reserve rangers that it is a separate incident.

Re: Rhino Poaching
Heard on the radio one killed in Northwest and one in Kruger so far...
Also Kruger/SANPARKS supports legalised selling of rhino horn! Not sure under which thread to put that? Maybe a new one!

Re: Rhino Poaching
Of course they would support that.
They are sitting on a fortune in horns.
But like the sale of the elephant tusks the sale of the horns would just fuel the demand for horns.
That would be the most stupidest thing to do.
