Rhinoceros

This is Mankwe Wildlife Reserve worker Lynne MacTavish sat weeping by the body of one of the rhino on her reserve that had fallen victim to poaching. This cow had her spine slashed and her horn brutally hacked off whilst she was still alive. In October 2014, the reserve had two rhinos poached, one of which was pregnant and didn’t survive.

I'd have "people" in place such that blood would flow from the heads of poachers, not from rhino. After 4 or 5 dead poachers, maybe they start thinking about NOT doing it and getting real jobs. Or 40 or 50. Whatever it takes.
