Hace 5 días · The Rhisotope Project, a South African-based conservation initiative, is harnessing nuclear technology by inserting radioisotopes into live rhino horns. These detectable horn markers can then easily be picked up by existing nuclear security infrastructure at border posts across the world.
Hace 4 días · Twenty rhinos at The Rhino Orphanage in Mokopane, Limpopo District, South Africa, had the radioscopes inserted into their horns, in what is the first the first such project of its kind.
Hace 4 días · The Rhisotope Project, led by Johannesburg’s University of the Witwatersrand, has begun inserting radioactive pellets into rhino horns to deter poaching. This innovative method aims to protect South Africa’s rhino population by making their horns less attractive to poachers.
Hace 5 días · Warning Horn. In an effort to make them useless to poachers, researchers are implanting radioactive isotopes into the horns of rhinos in South Africa. The unusual material would "render the...
Hace 5 días · South African scientists on Tuesday injected radioactive material into live rhino horns to make them easier to detect at border posts in a pioneering project aimed at curbing poaching.
Hace 5 días · Scientists in South Africa are now injecting the horns of live rhinos with non-toxic radioactive isotopes to make the horns unfit for human consumption and allow for easier tracking at...
Hace 4 días · Also, South African researchers begin an ambitious trial to inject rhino horns with low levels of radioactive matter, in order to make them dangerous for human consumption.
