Title:

War on poachers in SA heats up as SANParks arrests another 4 rhino poaching suspects

Publication Year:
2021
Abstract:

SANParks announced today (5 June 2021) that well executed operations at the end of May led to the arrest of four suspected poachers. The first incident was last weekend, on Sunday 30 May in the Pretoriuskop Section, and the other on Monday in the Houtboschrand Section, both located in the South of the Kruger National Park (KNP). SANParks said that rangers (with K9 support) responded last Sunday to a visual of two suspected rhino poachers and went in pursuit of them. The Airwing Unit was called in to support the ground teams; and before long the two suspects were arrested without incident.
