In early 2012, a heavily-armed band of foreign poachers slaughtered over 300 elephants for their ivory in Cameroon’s Bouba N’Djida National Park.

Since the incident, Cameroon has increased protection at its park and announced plans to hire 2 500 new rangers to be deployed across the country.


Clearly it is not only rhinos that are in trouble from poaching. Many thousands of elephants are slaughtered each year for their ivory throughout our continent.
