Shocked, Shattered & Scared

One of the main topics of conversation today - Rhino Poaching.....

Working on a Game Reserve this topic is a little closer to home and a part of our everyday life! A helicopter or plane flies over and everyone runs outside to identify the airspace intruder. A gunshot goes off and all rangers grab a firearm and hop into the closest vehicle to inspect the reserve and pray that we find our rhino's alive. Never mind that at all times we are putting our own lives in danger to save these magnificent animals!

• Last year 333 rhinos were poached. 323 White Rhino and 10 Black Rhino.
• This year, so far 73 rhinos have been poached!!!! 67 White Rhino and 6 Black Rhino.

This is sick and sad! Heartbreaking to say the least! We need to stand together and put an end to this miserable behaviour!
