The Latest e'Pap Warrior - May he continue to thrive! |
e'Pap would like to applaud his caregivers for all the hard work they are putting in to protect this endangered species.
Despite reports that rhino poaching decreased dramatically in 2013 in Zimbabwe registering a 66% drop compared to 2012, poaching remains a major concern. The fact is the rhino population in Zimbabwe has plummeted to just 750 of these exceptionally majestic prehistoric behemoths (450 black and 300 white rhinos) compared to a population of some 2 000 at the end of the 1980's.
Sadly the situation in South Africa is far worse as highlighted by the country's Department of Environmental Affairs...
e'Pap is now a popular choice for anti-poaching patrols as it is any easy to carry, easy to prepare high nutrition meal designed to help sustain the energy of these conservation warriors.
