Biodiversity Management Plan for Black and White Rhino in South Africa

The Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment has published a notification in the Government Gazette on the revised Biodiversity Management Plan for Black and White Rhino in South Africa in the Government Gazette in terms of section 46 of the National Environmental Management: Biodiversity Act 2004, and is asking you to comment.

The Black and White Rhino Biodiversity Management Plan (BMP) aims to provide a strategic approach and detailed action plan to conserve rhino in South Africa; and for engaging with the relevant range States. The revision of the BMP consolidates previous work done at policy and planning level on rhino management into a single integrated tool in order to usher in a whole-of-society approach in the interest of both the rhinos and the people of South Africa.
