Abstract:

A group of private game farmers, Help our Rhino Now Namibia (HoRN.nam), is offering a reward of N$100 000 for information leading to the arrest of poachers who shot a rhino at a farm near Windhoek. HoRN.nam said in a media statement on Wednesday that rhino poaching has escalated in Namibia over the past 18 months. The organisation says this poses a real and critical threat to the well-being and future survival of Namibian rhino populations. The reward of N$100 000 being offered by HoRN.nam is for information leading to the arrest and successful prosecution of whoever was responsible for the poaching of a rhinoceros at farm Düsternbrook near Windhoek late last year.
