RANGERS in Hwange National Park have discovered the carcasses of 26 elephants at two locations, additional victims of cyanide poisoning.

Bhejani Trust and the National Parks and Wildlife Management Authority made the announcement on Wednesday, a week after 14 other elephants succumbed to similar poaching tactics.

According to the agency and Bhejani Trust, which undertakes joint animal monitoring and welfare work with the parks agency, the 26 dead elephants were found on Tuesday.

Fourteen tusks were recovered from these elephants and others were also removed but not recovered.


Parks spokesperson Caroline Washaya Moyo said rangers found 16 of the elephants in an area known as Lupande before stumbling on 10 others in Chakabvi.

Washaya-Moyo said no arrests have been made and investigations are in progress.

How do you say cyanide in one of the Chinese languages? Either Yue/Min/Kakka would be my starting point.

Funny how the eco-nuts (and many hunters on this very board) will argue for pages and pages about the ethics of Nixon's recent client taking a 120 pounder....but almost none of them say or do anything about stuff like this.
