BRITS POS – HARTBEESPOORT - Brits Pos het nou al in ‘n paar uitgawes die uitmergelende stryd tussen wildstropers en die paar grondeienaars in die brose Magaliesberg Biosfeer onder ons besorgde lesers se aandag gebring.
Te midde van hittegolftoestande en die daaglikse inspeksie van duur wildwerende omheinings, was die onaangename verrassing Maandag, 11 Maart, die ontdekking van ‘n pragtige rooibok wat ook tot ‘n grusame einde gekom het.
Weer ‘n keer is die opening in ‘n heining teen die suidelike hang van die Magaliesberg gemaak. Voor die stropers hulle buit kon kom haal, is die dooie bok gevind.
