I'm glad to see you post about how bad poaching is!
The figures for 2017 show that over 1000 game rangers died in Sub Saharan Africa during 2017
Damn, that's insane!
I wish the Asian buyers would have a change of heart and stop buying rhino horns and ivory. Right now it's so valuable that it seems impossible to stop the poachers, so it might be a better strategy to try to reduce the demand.
Hi @valth, Thanks for the comment. Reduction in demand would be the way to go and thsi is normally done through education. Unfortunately it is the educated wealthy in Asia who are creating the demand, which makes it hard to tackle.

Yes, it seems very difficult to get them to change their mind about this. But luckily it seems like the younger generation is not as keen on buying wildlife products, so hopefully the demand will be less when the younger generation "replace" the old generations.
