DANGER: Rapid Response Dog Unit In Kenya This Wild Life BBC Earth

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
This rapid response dog unit from Kenya works to stop rhino poachers. J. : Wow, can you say counterproductive? Using the most terrifying trained attack dogs to search whole villages full of small children doesn't seem to be the way to win hearts and minds of citizens who live near the park. To solve a murder, using interviews and community outreach would be a lot more likely to net the true culprit rather than some arbitrary scapegoat, and it would be much less likely to cause whole generations to fear and resent the park rangers. Really, this search-and-terrify strategy is not good for the long-term survival of elephants. What it does is antagonize the people the wildlife need most - the residents of the area. Those residents could be the eyes and ears of the park service, but only if they trust the rangers. Use the dogs to patrol inside the park, and use skilled negotiators to work with the villagers.

Making villagers and communities afraid is NOT a productive tactic to fight poaching. A bogus strategy indeed. A condensending approach from foreigners.
What happened to community participation? What about sustainability?

I understand that paoching is a horrid thing, but ppl will not be scared away. As a poor father who cannot feed a starving child I would also kill and risk getting caught.

Why don't they unleash Hyena's instead, strongest bite per pound. It like having one of those dogs on steroids with a horse power force to take anything down.
reply

so they scare the villagers with these dogs? Are the villagers, the poachers? Is they driven by poverty to do these works?
