While the Killing of Cecil the lion in Hwange has received more attention and condemnation from across the world, its is not the same when rangers and armed police shot dead some poachers.
This may be insinuating that human life is not more important than that of animals while in the bible God said man will rule over animals and feed on them when the need be.
This article come in the wake of a ranger in Kwazulu Natal having reportedly shot and killed a suspected poacher at the Zululand Rhino Reserve, near Hluhluwe earlier this week.
Howe ever two suspects escaped on foot, and one in a drop-off vehicle was arrested, Zululand Observer reported.
The shoting of human beings accused of killing animals has never been viewed as grossly unfair than the killing of the lion Cecil.
According to Zululand Rhino Reserve general manager Karen Holmes, the reserve has been faced with numerous incursions and poaching attempts.
"It has been taking a toll on our resources, but it is encouraging to see the state and private sector combine their resources and expertise, which then result in successes such as this," Holmes said.
KZN spokesperson Major Thulani Zwane said a firearm was found on the body of the 22-year-old deceased man. He added a case of murder has been opened at Mkhuze Police Station.
