Dario Cossa from Mozamibique: Rhino poaching, death, danger and delinquency

November 5, 2012

Hugh Paxton’s Blog is currently in Indochina and many posts reflect this but there is a very direct link between Asia and Africa and the link is unbalanced. This Blog hopes that Dario will become a regular Hugh Paxton Blog correspondent and keep us informed.

Thanks for writing, Dario and I’m glad you are annoyed. This blog thrives on bad jokes, great pictures, strange tales and annoyed correspondents!

Best!

Hugh

Over to Dario!

Hi there. people are making a lot of money out of poaching. we all need money but it must be legal and confessable. in mkzambique whrere i live and i am from people end a rhino’s life for the sake of the bloody car, lobolo, show offs, etc (i will develop this matter next time). The result is that because of unecessary envy and ambition many youngsters quit or resign their jobs and they get on poaching. result? Too many die. shot dead. a few get sone money and do silly staff like being the boss for a week and get back to the field ( game farms, including the greater knp). Life is more valuable than a bullet and a rhino is as much valuable as a rhino. we all have to ensure that we all look after our lives including that of rhino’s.
