Abstract

El crecimiento sin precedentes del comercio ilegal de especies silvestres ha creado un grave problema para la conservacion en Africa. Los gobiernos de todo el mundo suelen crear entidades para proteger las especies y preservar la biodiversidad en sus respectivos paises. A pesar de las numerosas intervenciones para conservar las poblaciones de rinocerontes amenazadas del mundo y reducir los incidentes de caza furtiva de rinocerontes, la caza furtiva de las poblaciones de rinocerontes del mundo continua, especialmente en Sudafrica. Se utilizaron estadisticas descriptivas e inferenciales para analizar y comparar las divulgaciones relacionadas con rinocerontes con las tendencias de la caza furtiva de rinocerontes, para identificar posibles correlaciones entre incidentes de caza furtiva de rinocerontes y relacionados con rinocerontes, y para establecer diferencias entre los periodos entre 2006 y 2015 (cubiertos en Ackers, 2019) y el periodo posterior de 2016 a 2021. A diferencia del periodo de 2006 a 2015, en el que varias palabras clave relacionadas con el rinoceronte estaban fuertemente correlacionadas con los incidentes de caza furtiva de rinocerontes, no se detectaron correlaciones de 2016 a 2021. Aunque los incidentes de caza furtiva de rinocerontes disminuyeron, SANParks parece haber aumentado estrategicamente su defensa contra la caza furtiva manteniendo altos niveles de divulgacion sobre cuestiones relacionadas con los rinocerontes, lo que demuestra como ha cumplido su mandato relacionado con la biodiversidad. Utilizando el mismo enfoque de investigacion de metodos mixtos y datos similares, este documento amplia el estudio de Ackers (2019), que examino como los funcionan los South African National Parks (SANParks), al incluir las divulgaciones de 2016 a 2021.
