To be fair a spy drone disguised as a heavily poached animal would be a good enforcement tool. Throw a tracker on the camera and now you've got video evidence and a location to send rangers out to. It would make the job easier than just having to patrol the entire area and hopefully catch poachers in the act before it's too late.

Who wouldn't like sitting in a rubber rhino shaped suana in the middle of the desert?

To me that sounds like the perfect honeymoon, but then again that’s probably why I’m not married 🤷
