Title:

Decline in Kruger rhino-poaching rates woefully drives shift to commercial bushmeat, reveals park ranger

Author(s):
Walters T
Publication Year:
2023
Abstract:

A void left by illegal horn income may now be driving neighbouring communities to snare and shoot species such as African buffalo in the park's southwest sector. Despite the lowveld’s searing heat, thorny canopy and tough terrain, Kruger's staff and honorary rangers say they are fighting back - on foot.
