It only caught my eye due to other recent Kenyan stories.

BBC: Kenya rangers shoot dead five suspected poachers (110lbs. of elephant ivory recovered)
Kenya rangers shoot dead five suspected poachers
Wildlife rangers have shot dead five suspected ivory poachers during a gun battle in western Kenya. Two rangers were hurt during the battle in West Pokot county, said officials from Kenya's Wildlife Service (KWS). They said 50kg (110lb) of elephant tusks and AK-47 rifles were recovered.
Kenya has recently taken a more aggressive stance against poaching as it combats a surge in demand for ivory from Asia in spite a long-standing ban on the international trade.
KWS spokesman Paul Udoto said on Saturday that rangers were determined to make poaching "a high-cost, low-benefit activity".
The article goes on to state that about 100 elephants are illegally killed each year and that elephant ivory is smuggled to Asia to use in jewelry and ornaments.
**** poachers. **** them like Blackwater mercenaries.

What became of the dead poacher carcasses?
When the jug-eared Kenyan and his savage relatives were chowing down on pooches, was there a side dish of poachers?
The thread slayer and liquidation team member DUmmy cbayer cannot sniff out three very active, but lovable, moles, but is an expert on African poachers:

2. Good for them. These poachers are relentless and have to be eliminated.

4. Remove the dead poachers teeth and send that to an Asian jeweler that processes ivory

Weren't Spanish royalty caught killing elephants?
Weren't Trump's sons seen posing with dead animals in Africa?
