The recent increase in wildlife crimes in the country remains a concern to the Ministry of Environment, Forestry, and Tourism. 

A total of 55 rhinos have been poached between January and August this year, an increase of 11 cases compared to last year.

The Minister of Environment, Forestry, and Tourism has urged farmers at Otjimboyo Conservancy in Erongo's Dâures Constituency to diversify production systems and adapt to climate change.
