Title:

Securing a poaching scene - the right way

Publication Year:
2020
Abstract:

What should a farmer, lodge manager, landowner or a farm worker do when he stumbles across a poaching scene? Participants of the Animal Crime Scene and Evidence Handling Course received detailed answers to this question while gaining insight into the complexity of gathering evidence. During the course, participants were reminded that they are neither police officers nor experts in collecting evidence. The main aim is to be a partner of the police and to assist them by properly securing a crime scene and valuable evidence. The course took place from 16 to 19 July 2020 was sponsored by ISAP and was hosted by Wildlife Vets Namibia at the ISAP facility.
