-

WINDHOEK: Namibia will start prosecutin­g people who kill wildlife and post pictures on social media, Environmen­t and Tourism Minister Pohamba Shifeta said on Wednesday.

Those who kill wildlife, whether with a permit or not, and post photos on social media and boast will face the wrath of the law once the Protected Areas and Wildlife Management Bill passes into law.

This comes after a video went viral in the country where a group of people shot a kudu and started throwing stones at it to kill it.
