Pretoria - A recent report by the Global Organised Crime Index ranked South Africa 19 out of 193 countries for criminality. According to the report, the year 2020 shaped organised crime in many different ways because of Covid-19, but while the global economy ground to a halt under lockdowns and travel restrictions, criminals were working out how to circumvent obstacles and exploit the situation. The report also indicated that rhino poaching had declined during the pandemic. Population numbers for the Kruger National Park showed previously that the white rhino population had fallen by 67% from 2011 to 2019, and the number of critically endangered black rhino had decreased by 53%.
