Two white rhinos were killed and dehorned in a Limpopo game reserve, police said.

Police in the Lephalale area were called to a game reserve Tuesday morning after rangers discovered the carcasses of male and female rhinos. The police named the reservation.

“Upon arrival, the rhinos were also found to have been shot, dehorned and a cartridge and a shell were found by police at the crime scene,” said police spokesman Lt. Col. Mamphaswa Seabi.

Seabi urged anyone with information to contact Colonel Alphius Mokale at 082 565 6524 or Crime Stop at 08600 10111.

Last month, two rhinos were found similarly dead in a game reserve outside Phalaborwa on November 11.
