Renosters word onthoring na stropery toeneem
Private renostereienaars onthoring tans hul diere om hulle teen die onlangse toename in stroperyvoorvalle te beskerm. Altesaam 48 renosters is reeds vanjaar gestroop, wat reeds verlede jaar se syfer van 44 oortref, asook die 42 renosters in 2020. Uit dié 48 was 32 swart- en 16 witrenosters – waarvan 12 swartrenosters op bewaringsplase gestroop is en 16 witrenosters op private plase.
Private rhino owners are currently dehorning their animals to protect them from the recent increase in poaching incidents. A total of 48 rhinos have already been poached this year, which already exceeds last year's figure of 44, as well as the 42 rhinos in 2020. Out of these 48, 32 were black and 16 white rhinos - of which 12 black rhinos were poached on conservation farms and 16 white rhinos on private farms.
