💨 Abstract

In South Africa, a university spearheaded an anti-poaching campaign by injecting rhinos with radioactive isotopes in their horns, which are harmless to the animals but detectable by customs agents. This initiative aims to deter poachers and traffickers, addressing the significant decline in the global rhino population, which has dropped from around 500,000 to approximately 27,000.
