Snares, the Indiscriminate Killer

Date of post: 10/31/19

Recently, the Nsefu team have spotted several animals that have been entangled in snares. They are an Elephant, Bushbuck and Lion. We were able to help the Bushbuck, but are still looking for the elephant and lion.

Snares are the equivalent to Gillnets in the ocean. They can kill or main anything that gets trapped in them.

Pictured below is the Lion we recently spotted with a snare around his left front paw.
