rhinos and live cameras

By on September 10, 2011 in General

Hi all

Due to the recent rhino poaching, we have decided not to show rhino on the live cameras, safari nor dam. Whilst I doubt this will make any difference – I strongly doubt poachers are using the live cameras to locate a rhino – but it is a risk we are not prepared to take.
Thank you for your understanding
Jurie

    Just sickens me that ‘they’ poach on reserve property. It’s bad enough that this happens at all, but the audacity to do it on private land that’s a game reserve………

    Thank you Jurie. I don’t understand how people can be so cruel. “Bless the beasts and the Children. For in this world they have no voice” Thank you for being that voice and trying to keep them safe. Diane

    I shall miss seeing them but I fully agree we must do all we can to protect these wonderful beasts. I am astonished that they can poach them from a game reserve where I thought they were completely safe. You can’t count an anything anymore.

    Although I will miss them on drive, I accept your thoughtful decision. If there is even a small chance that it might protect these wonderful creatures, it is worth it.
