第 255 课:猎杀犀牛-3

In 2001, sixty eight percent of African rhino horns entering illegal trade were recovered. 在 2001 年,进入非法贸易的非洲犀牛角有 68% 被查获。

By this year, nine out of ten were heading to Asian markets without interference. 到今年, 90% 的非洲犀牛角毫无阻碍地进入了亚洲市场。

The report says poaching and illegal horn trade has increased in South Africa even with new measures against it. 该报告称,即使有新的禁止措施,偷猎和非法犀牛角贸易在南非仍在增长。

Adding to the problem, poachers today are more skilled at killing rhinos, and not only with guns. 雪上加霜的是,今天的偷猎者猎杀犀牛的技术更娴熟,而不仅仅用枪。

They also use quieter methods, like veterinary drugs, poison and crossbows. 他们使用更隐蔽的方法,比如兽药、毒药和弩。
