I visited some of the ranger stations in the Serengeti, and they are super hardcore about stopping poaching. The rangers carry multiple guns, including AK-47s, and deal with poachers every day who are just as armed.
I was lucky enough to see one of the few remaining black rhinos, as well.

the administration of resident John Magufuli
@doctorow While Mr Magufuli is indeed a resident of Tanzania, it seems relevant to note that he is also the President of Tanzania.

Would it be unsporting to try to start the rumor that poacher teeth and bones are a crazy-powerful aphrodisiac and general cure for what ails you?
