The poaching of rhino is a highly organised operation involving wealthy international traders and often highly placed and corrupt politicians and officials. These people hire experienced and determined poachers as the anti-poaching forces in Zimbabwe have discovered over the past 18 months during which time some 150 rhino have been poached and 23 Zambian based poachers killed.
