The rhino war in South Africa has entered its 10th year, and last year saw 662 rhino killed in Kruger alone—and over 1,000 in total for South Africa. This book discusses corruption and the criminal justice system, the need for more community engagement, and the costs of protection. It also looks at how far we have come since the rhino wars in the 1980s and the rhino trade debate. Rhino Revolution testifies to the excellent conservation work that is being undertaken by the state and the private sector in security, tourism, community involvement, and environmental education, as well as NGO support. The book includes magnificent photographs and afterwords by John Hanks and Yolan Friedmann.
