Environmentalists say protecting rhinos is expensive

Rhinos in the wild could face extinction in a matter of years. In the Kruger National Park, the heartland of state-owned rhinos, numbers have dropped by about 63 percent over 10 years, despite hundreds of millions of rand spent on anti-poaching efforts. For many private game owners, rhinos have become too costly and too stressful to keep, and they could end up ditching the animals. Environment journalist and author, Don Pinnock says protecting rhinos has become an expensive liability. Courtesy #DStv403
