    That article brings up such a difficult problem, and I don't think it's as simple as that at all. After reading it, I think the article is probably a bit one-sided, but it does raise an important point of whether the anti-poaching has gone too far.

    I do find myself agreeing with the park authorities on taking a very hard line against poaching and even killing poachers, but just looking at the one article (I would research it further, but I don't have time) its seems that it's not being done carefully enough.
