- W1837616347 abstract "Solio Game Reserve in central Kenya was the first black rhino (Diceros bicornis) sanctuary in the country. In 1970 five remnant individuals were moved into it for safekeeping against poachers. Eighteen further introductions and subsequent births in good habitat with no human interference led to rapid population increase, and the reserve has since become the source of 67 rhinos to assist in stocking new sanctuaries. In 2000, when the reserve had the highest density of rhinos in Kenya, poachers attacked Solio and nine black rhinos were killed in a five-year period. A security and monitoring system needed to be established. All previous records had been destroyed in a fire and there were no accurate population estimates of the number of rhinos. Patrol camps, patrol staff and associated equipment were acquired and training was undertaken. The reserve was GPS mapped and divided into seven security sectors, each with four or five monitoring areas. Photo identification was used to determine the number, identity and demography of the rhinos. A simple computerized record-keeping system was designed and installed and is outlined. In December 2005 field monitoring began. At the end of the first year, using identification photographs and with nearly 6000 sightings, 87 rhinos were identified but with the likelihood that there were some duplication errors and some rhinos not yet found and photographed. From this, a sex and age profile was produced and breeding performance estimated and benchmarked. With a population greatly in excess of estimated carrying capacity, reduction in numbers by translocation to other areas is essential but with an imbalance in the sex and age profile, choosing suitable candidates will be a problem." @default.
