Re: Rhino Poaching 2013
But as the updates have been really slow lately I fear we are very close or over 900 already.

Re: Rhino Poaching 2013
The numbers are getting a bit fudgy, Duke...
Over the last two years regular in local paper, now mostly old poacher arrest stories/updates ...lack of info, not lack of willingness from the paper!

They say it has been done but no figures has been given yet.

Re: Rhino Poaching 2013
I was told by a person on the ground in SANParks today that the figure for KNP alone this year is 774 or 747. He told me in Afrikaans, now I can't remember which one it was. If this is true, surely the countries number must be heading for 1000???
Sometimes it’s not until you don’t see what you want to see, that you truly open your eyes.
