South Africa’s environment ministry reported a second year of decline in rhino poaching. Illegal killings rose from fewer than 100 in 2008, driven by demand for rhino horn in traditional medicines. But the number peaked in 2014; last year they fell by 10%, to 1,054, thanks mostly to better policing. Poachers also killed 46 elephants in the Kruger National Park.
