Another Poached Rhino in Laikipia
Category: Issues, Mammals | Date: May 29 2009 | By: tumaren
Here is the sad story of another poached Rhino. This pressure will never ease until more effort is spent addressing the underlining cause, the unbelievable market value for the horn. We in Kenyan conservation spend so much money breeding Rhinos but i question whether it would be money better spent instituting stiffer sentences, laws and education in those places where Rhino horn is being purchased by the end user.
