I can only confirm that there was a clash between the rangers and the morans who wanted to kill more elephants. By the time our men arrived, there the morans had already killed one elephant and they were going for more

When Africa is devoid of it's beautful animals, there will be no more visitors. Do they not understand that?

Thank you Jill! Sadly, these "Ranchers" are getting rid of all of all of the Special Creatures around the World...Once, they're gone young people are only going to see their pictures in the History Books!

Noted with Pain and sorrow!

Instead of sending the ones who were caught to get treated for their injuries they should of let them die alone where they were injured but now these pieces of crap will be taken care, they will not be punished and they will mutilate and kill again!

I think it should read MORONS injured in clash. Too bad it wasn't fatally. Really hated the end of the story where it says 30 suspected poachers had been released. One step forward, three steps back. Damn. Thanks Jill!

Noted! I certainly hope the rangers just go ahead and cut off the heads of these poachers and leave them their to feed the lions!

Clearly, these poachers were being protected . How are 30 poachers released? By whose authority? With little to no backing, these rangers know in their their hearts these men have to die in order for justice to be served.

So sorry the rangers didn't arrive in time to save that precious Elephant's life. As for the poachers, they don't deserve treatment for their injuries!! Thanks Jill.
