Sad statistics !!!

Wild South Africa

Kruger National Park

 

Last year 71 elephants were killed in the Kruger National Park, up from only 2 in 2014, 24 in 2015, 46 in 2016 and 67 in 2017. Another 4 died last year as a result of injuries sustained in snares. Most of the elephants were killed in the north-eastern part of the reserve, bordering Mozambique. While concentrating on protecting the Rhinos against humans the poaching of elephants is escalating. Where will it all end?
