-LOCKED - Anti-Poaching Event
Posted on 2015-03-03 07:30:28

World Wildlife Day


Today is World Wildlife Day, and with that we want to honour what we may lose if we don’t fight for it as civilization, as a whole. Every day should be wildlife day.

2014 alone, according to data published by South African Department of Environmental Affairs, 1250 Rhinos were poached. It's double than 2012. Just in january 2015, 49 Rhinos fell to poachers. Imagine how bad it would be without organizations who try to save those animals. Not only Rhinos, but Elephants, lions, leopards, all of them.

Many poachers will hack brutally the the entire face off of the rhino with axes while the animal is still alive to ensure that they get the entire horn as well as this "serum" as it is worth more.

Living our everyday lives might seem helpless in a big fight against such endless problem. It might not occur to us when we drink our morning coffee, drive to work or play a videogame, that we actually can do a little something, to help people who are professionally prepared to fight against mass animal massacres. We can give them a hand and share what we have with them, and help spreading the word around the world. Helping to save the lions, rhinos and elephants, and all other endangered animals is in our hands as well.

Anti-Poaching Event

Anti-Poaching Event is creating oppoturnity for you to defeat poachers in Explore, gain Prevent Points to unlock the secret area and defend the Africa!
What is great that the wandering poachers have randomized encounters AND some outcomes too, and this adds a lot of variety to your choices! But be careful! If your level is too low, you might not stand a chance against a large number of poachers! There's traps everywhere!
Killing poachers and just shooing them away is affecting your karma!

Prevent Points are gained for public bar unlock, but you might notice you also gain "RB". These are Rhino Beetles, a special event currency! Keep onto them as you unlock the secret area!

But Poachers aren't only lurking in Lioden, they already did some evil. You might stumble upon the results of their doings in explore as well. It might be horribly sad but it's horribly true in real life as well. We want to raise awareness, and we want you to be prepared for sad times.

But be wary! If you guys don't manage to prevent poaching in time and unlock tier 3, there will be harsh consequences!

Charity


Just like last year, we will be donating part of our March income (at the end of the month) to organization we trust and believe in the most. The person who founded it, Damien Mander, used to work as a sniper and in the military but gave up that and all his life savings to start IAPF when he noticed how bad poaching was when he went to Africa. They use the top notch technology to fight poachers with best tools possible, such as trap detectors, drones and military training, scoring arrests with constant ambushes. They do everything to prevent animal extinction in Africa alone, not just post sad posters around the world.

To learn more about Damien Mander and IAPF, you can watch this video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0yxeQYca-U

Event update for 2015: as you unlock tiers, a few more encounters in explore will appear. Also, new rewards in the shop will be available in higher tiers.

Good luck, and good night!

I don't see why poachers have to be butt heads...

All this money goes to donations for environmental protection stuff and what not yet somehow poaching has doubled? Makes me wonder where the money is really going.

i generally dont want to spend money on pet sites, but i think i will this month. this is a heart wrenching and eye opening news post/event. I really thought that this wasnt still going on. a big part of me wants to head off to africa to contribute daily.

So sad all this poaching stuff, and all these animals dying because of humans. D: My favourite animal ended up going functionally extinct in 2006. I had always hoped to see it one day, and now it's functionally extinct and now I'll never have that chance. I hope that no other animal suffers the loss of their entire species, and no other person has to go through realizing one of their favourite animals is no longer existent.

Though I have seen how sad this is, the charity sounds wonderful and this is an eye openeer for me, I never really thought critically about poaching until I see this.
