Elephant Poachers Arrested - Alastair Nelson

Poachers are ruthlessly pursuing elephants across Africa. But conservation efforts recently had a success in arresting two poachers and seizing their high-powered rifles. Wildlife Conservation Society Mozambique director Alastair Nelson says that Mozambique recently developed new laws to prosecute poachers and that it is likely the poachers will be handed a long jail sentence. Nelson says that WCS helped Mozambique's government establish a framework to protect the 12,000 elephants that live in the Niassa National Reserve.
