Police Inspector-General Sebastian Ndeitunga has called for the establishment of a database of all trespassers in national parks and nature reserves to establish whether there are links with poachers and possible buyers of rhino horns and elephant tusks. Ndeitunga made these remarks at the Etosha National Park while addressing Heads of Criminal Investigation, Operations, Special Branch and Special Field Force Directorates as well as regional commanders from the Oshana, Oshikoto, Omusati, Kunene and Otjozondjupa regions. According to Ndeitunga, 43 rhinos have been killed in the country so far this year compared to 28 last year, while 78 elephants were poached last year and 11 this year. Ndeitunga said most cases of rhino poaching reported since last year are still unsolved.
