Programmes that Save the Rhino Trust Namibia Implement

SRT has provided consistent patrolling and monitoring of black rhino in the Kunene over the last 25 years. This ensures the long-term security of the desert-adapted black rhino and prevents poaching or other illegal activities. The challenge of monitoring rhinos in this habitat cannot be underestimated. The area where SRT operates is vast, the landscape rugged, and there is no national park status. Our teams of dedicated trackers patrol and monitor the areas from vehicles, on foot and in the air.
