African Rhino Specialist Group. Cites resolution on rhino conservation.
The ARSG was requested at the 31st Standing Committee of CITES, held in Geneva in March 1994, to draft a resolution on the conservation of rhinos, incorporating the variety of available management options. This was achieved through one of the working groups in Mombasa and the draft forwarded to the CITES secretariat for consideration. The ARSG firmly believes that standardized indicators of success need to be developed to measure the effects of illegal killing, and that trade bans alone will not eliminate poaching. The long-term goal for range states should be to become self-sufficient in rhino conservation.
