Rhino poaching is an escalating issue in South Africa, with nearly 500 rhinos killed in 2023 alone. Poachers have been shifting their focus away from previous hotspots, causing concern among conservationists.

The demand for rhino horn remains high, driving poachers to go to extreme lengths to obtain it. Despite efforts to combat poaching, the numbers continue to rise, posing a significant threat to the rhino population in South Africa.

Conservationists are calling for urgent action to address this crisis before it’s too late. The future of rhinos in South Africa hangs in the balance, and the time to act is now.
