1997, Garamba NP is now part of a vast territory held by rebels of the Alliance of Democratic forces for the Liberation of Congo-Zaire. There has been no effective management of the park since December 1996. Kes Smith: Quite a lot of our equipoment was looted by government soldiers as they left. We also believe the guard's weapons may have been confiscated by rebels. In 196m 5 rhinos were fitted with radio transmitters so that aerial trackers could monitor them. This work is interrupted at a critical moment.
