COVID has changed everything!
Some say it’s decreased rhino poaching while others say it has not.
Regardless, a larger threat is emerging.
Rhino horn is erroneously being sold as a cure for COVID-19 in Asia.
Can you see what’s going to happen?
In Asia myths abound.
Over the past decade rhino have been brutally killed for their horns.
Myth #1: Rhino horn raises a person’s status in society.
Myth #2: Rhino horn cures everything, from gout to impotence.
Driven close to extinction
One rhino is killed every 10 hours!
This large scale poaching by the wildlife trafficking trade has put the black and white rhinos at risk of extinction.
Over the past months Peter and his anti-poaching team have been very busy.
The GOOD NEWS…
The Air Ranger and Air Scout drones continue to prove very successful in deterring and apprehending rhino poachers.
The BAD NEWS…
Many other areas are requesting their help. Many other rhinos need to be protected. To expand their reach Peter needs to scale on many levels.
However, three items can help right away.
