Meer as 40% van die 987 verdagtes wat sedert 2017 weens olifant- en renosterwildmisdade in hegtenis geneem is, is op borgtog vrygelaat. Statistieke toon 415 van dié verdagtes is tans op borgtog, terwyl slegs 142 skuldig bevind is. Daarbenewens is meer as 87% Namibiërs. Die hoof van die eenheid vir beskermde hulpbronne en die Blou Renoster-taakspan, adj.komm. Barry de Klerk, het dié statistieke by die Nasionale Belanghebbersforum oor Wildmisdaad en Wetstoepassing gedeel. Hy het gesê sedert 2017 is 291 vuurwapens afgevat, waarvan 18 gekonfiskeer is; en altesaam 152 voertuie is op beslag gelê, met 17 vanjaar. Volgens De Klerk het die jongste ontdekking van 11 swartrenosterkarkasse in die Etosha Nasionale Park die aantal gestroopte renosters vir 2022 tot 21 opgestoot.

More than 40% of the 987 suspects arrested since 2017 for elephant and rhino wildlife crimes have been released on bail. Statistics show 415 of those suspects are currently on bail, while only 142 have been convicted. In addition, more than 87% are Namibians. The head of the unit for protected resources and the Blue Rhino task team, adj.comm. Barry de Klerk, shared these statistics at the National Stakeholder Forum on Wildlife Crime and Law Enforcement. He said since 2017, 291 firearms have been seized, 18 of which have been confiscated; and a total of 152 vehicles were seized, with 17 this year. According to De Klerk, the latest discovery of 11 black rhino carcasses in the Etosha National Park has pushed the number of poached rhinos to 21 by 2022.
