Since rhinos are rare wild animals, there is a ban on poaching, and there is a law that prevents them from being harmed in any other way. Traffickers kill rhinos for the horn-like substance found on the nose of the rhinoceros. In recent years, rhinoceros have also died after being struck by the highly dangerous electric fence that farmers have put up in the fields to protect crops.
