television on rhino. it's in krueger national park in south africa where we've interviewed local people relying on the park and the rhino there for their livelihoods. the final comment by the woman was this. when you're killing rhino, you're killing us. you can't put it any better than this. these syndicates are hard to beat. as has been pointed out, there are high profits to be made with respect to rhino horn, black market price has gone up to $65,000 a kilogram. well above the price of gold. the risk of defection is low and if you are tected, the risk of prosecution is low and the risk of being incarcerated is low in far too many cases. but we know how to beat these syndicat syndicates. we just have to apply it more often and with greater vig or and the risks associated not only to wildlife, but the risk associated to local people, governments and to security is such that we must up the ante. we need to take additional measures in terms of legislation, the penalties and in terms of enforcement measures.

and with rhino, we have gone from 13,00013,000 -- 13 illegal killed rhinos. this is despite the efforts of the south african government which has really enhanced it's effort. the societies exist with the objective of survival of species in the world. ade goes well beyond the impact of those species. criminal syndicates are well adapted in avoiding detection. they're exploiting some of the poorest people on the planet. they are corrupting officials and they are wounding and killing enforcement officers in the field. as such they are depriving local people of legitimate development choices and depriving states of revenue, not to mention robs states of their cultural heritage and their natural resources, this is undermining the rule of law, it is undermining security and it must be stopped. the examples given you here regarding cameroon and we -- we had rebels crossing into northern cameroon, massacring elephants for the purpose of getting their ivory that they'll use to finance activities they want to take with respect to local conflicts. can i give you another

i think the mainland market for rhino horn seems to be vietnam. i think we need to at a political level and at an operational level really enhance our effort there's, because we need some very strong political signals coming with respect to this being unacceptable and really enhance the effort being made at an operational level. because they've made no seizures there i think since 2008. yet all the evidence coming from south africa and other countries that this is a prime destination. with respect to other states, i think if we look at africa, i think the other states that we'll all be familiar with that have weaker systems in terms of their rule of law and governance. and as you said, senator, it's not just wildlife crime, it's other types of crime as well that perhaps aren't getting the attention that they deserve. again, we try and work with these states to lift them up. there was one state in africa, nigeria, that was a subject of a trade smungs because of lack enforcement effort that was lifted at the last standing committee in august of last

with rhino horn at times more valuable per ounce than gold. and if that's not troubling enough, consider that more than 23 metric tons of illegal ivory were seized last year. that's nearly 2,500 elephants. the net effect of these depp rr is more insecurity, more violence and more corruption, not to mention the devastation of existing and potential opportunities for tourism and economic development. and ultimately, the deprivation with respect to the stability of whole regions. so given these very real risks, i am convinced it is incumbent on all of us to ask what's causing this resurgence in poaching and what can be done to combat it? the demand side of this equation is crucial. according to u.n. assessments, east asia is the primary destination for ivory and other products. people are buying it. the chinese government with some substantial seizers but clearly, a lot more needs to be done. on that front, i want to recognize the work of the u.s., fish and wildlife -- the service is vigorously prosecutoring illegal ivory importers here in the un

by the secretary general and where we need to gain more tracking mechanisms for following ivory and rhino horns and because we have a huge gap of the middle men that we do not get them arrested, prosecuted and put away. we don't even know who they are in many cases. we know the demand is on one side and the supply is on the other, and finally demand, i believe, that if china were to take leadership, it would be huge in their own interests and the moment that they're getting a terrible reputation for the environmental record in africa and by having fingers pointed as being the prime instigators of illegal and rhino horn trading and it is tiny little trade that matters nothing to china compared to their other interests in building and developing so finally i would end there. >> whether you say the tracking of the ivory, are there mechanisms, do we have any ability to track the ivory now? >> there are gadgets that can be used at a certain level but the problem is they have to be embedded in the ivory and there is dna tracking which is an extremely promising field that needs ra lot more work

i consider myself a rhino but you have to consider one thing. you have an elephant and you have an elephant. you have a jack ass and you can ride a jack ass but a rhino only has a point to make and has a very solid point to make and does it. i mean, no labels is around. that's almost the in between now and that's by mark mckinnon who was '43's public relations person. so where is the moderate wing and how does it really come back? because a lot of us think the democratic -- the democrats are too -- i hate to say this word -- liberal. and that now the republicans are too something or another. i can't figure out what they are. >> so are moderate republicans homeless? fair way of putting it? >> yes. >> are yesterday's moderate republicans homeless? >> sure, why not. i mean, the polls say that there's still millions of moderate republicans out there. by some accounts about a third of the membership of the republican party. moderates are also a plurality of the american electorate, depending on which poll you would choose. and yet they don't feel tha

on the killing of rhino for their horns. we are -- they rely on the rhinoceros for their livelihood. the final comment of the woman was this -- "when you kill the rhino, you kill us." this is destroying the livelihood of local people. these syndicates are hard to find. there are high profits to be made. it has gone up to $65,000 a kilogram, above the price of gold. the risk protection as low. but the risk of prosecution is low. the risk of being incarcerated is also low in far too many cases. we know how to beat the syndicates. we have the know-how and the technology, but we just have to apply it with greater vigor. do risks associated with surviving the wild and associated with local people, government, and security is such that we must up the ante. we need to take additional measures operationally in terms of enforcement measures. we must move beyond seizures. we must move beyond the prosecutor to get convictions and start incarcerating people committing these crimes. it should not be elephants, rhinos, and tigers behind b

i was shocked and saddened by news that the mass poachings in cameroon and the surge in rhino poaching in south africa over the past year, the pictures of dead elephants and hornless rhinos are heart breaking, they stand as a grim reminder of our capacity to inflict harm on the natural world. but i would also emphasize here, the human costs of trafficking in ivory and other animal parts need to be focused on. this is a multimillion dollar criminal enterprise. the united nations office on drugs and crime makes it a significant form of trance national crime. poaching is not just a security threat for africa. it is also a menace to developing economies and it thrives where governance is weakest. poachers with heavy weapons are a danger to lightly armed rangers and civilians, as well as to the animals that they target. they operate in remote territories and cross borders with impunity, wreaking havoc on villages and families. increasingly, criminal gangs and militias are wiping out entire herds and killing anyone who gets in their way. we also know that poaching is interwoven into some ess

don't take my word for it u just look at the facts, according to the african wild live funds, rhino poaching increased by 3,000%. in south africa alone. consider that more than 23 metric tons of illegal ivory were pieced last year, that's nearly 2,500 elephants. the net effect of these degree gradations is more violence and more corruption, not to mention the devastation of existing and potential opportunities for tourism and economic development and ultimately the depravation with respect to the stability of whole regions. so given these very real risks, i am convinced it is incumbent on all of us to ask what's causing this resurgence in poaching and what can be done to combat it. the demand side of this equation is crucial. east asia is the primary destination for ivory and other products. people are buying it. the united states and others have made some substantial seizures, but clearly a lot more needs to be done to e. working collaboratively with asian countries in order to reduce demand. >> improve international efforts to reduce trafficking of all kinds. and we'll hear today from our
