The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) says the fight against rhino poaching remains one of the country’s toughest conservation hurdles. WWF Rhino Programme Manager for South Africa Jeff Cooke says both black and white rhino are a vital part of the country’s heritage. However, they continue to face threats from poaching and organised criminal syndicates. Cooke warns that without sustained action and resources, South Africa may one day wake up without rhino.
