Yakub Ali has been a ‘most wanted’ poacher since he brutally shot down a rhino on the 29th of May. This Tuesday, Ali was arrested by forest officials for shooting and killing rhinos in the in Kaziranga National Park. While Ali was one of ten poachers present on the day of the incident, he has since been discovered as the main shooter.

Ali fired “six rounds of bullets to kill the rhino,” said Pranjal Baruah, forest range officer of the Northern Range Sixth Addition of KNP. Baruah stated that a total of “three empty cartridges were recovered from the spot.”
Ali’s relentless gunfire demonstrates the brutal nature of the killing as well as the devastating way so many humans treat animals.
Ali has a history of killing endangered animals, and was allegedly involved in another rhino poaching back in 2014.
Since the rhino killings this May, forest officials of the Northern Range of Sixth Addition Kaziranga National park have already apprehended five of the ten poachers who were there on the day of the incident.
Despite the rise of poaching in Kaziranga National park, conservationists remain positive while striving towards long-term solutions for the future of the rhino. From recruiting forest guards to calling upon the aid of enforcement agencies, “judiciary can come to a fruitful conclusion of sending the poachers behind bars for years,” according to Bibhab Talukdar, chair of the IUCN Species Survival Commission at the Asian Rhino Specialist Group and the Asian rhino coordinator for the International Rhino Foundation.
In some AFRICAN countries he would have been SHOT on site!!!
Shoot him! This is the only way to stop these guys.
THE PLACE OF THESE POACHERS Is NOT IN A JAIL BUT IN A CIMETARY !! IT’S QUICKER !!
All of these Rangers that do diligent work to find these poachers need desperate help from the judiciary to keep them behind bars. I mean what good is it all if you keep letting them go to kill and kill again!!! If we had harsher punishments wouldn’t that create a little more deterrence?! And isn’t this on the same level as trophy hunting!!! Let’s all get on the same page now!!!
Disgusting the cruelty that is inflicted by these people.
very dangerous, empathy-poor person. Should be taken out of society. I’m sure he’s dangerous to people too!
Blow all poachers heads off when caught with their own guns. SHOW NO MERCY FOR HEARTLESS SOULLESS EVIL BASTARD CRUEL HUMANS.
What do you want to bet Ali gets a slap on the wrist. That is why poaching still is popular in Africa. Most African and Asian countries could care less whether or not they have giraffes, lions, rhinos, etc.. Most people in Kenya have never seen a lion, for example. Poachers should be shot on sight. A World without wild animals would be a World I would not want to live in!
