The poaching of Dorsland, a black rhino cow in the Kunene Region, along with her calf and unborn calf, has united Namibians in grief and determination. What started as a heartfelt social media appeal over the weekend has quickly transformed into a nationwide movement, raising more than N$ 800 000 in just days to fund a N$1 million reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible. The campaign launched over the weekend through Facebook has been driven by overwhelming public support, according to Ultimate Safaris. It follows an initial pledge of N$100 000 from Ultimate Safaris through the Conservation Travel Foundation, as well as a personal contribution of N$50 000 from Tristan Cowley, Managing Director of Ultimate Safaris.
