Two rhinos were tranquilized and dehorned at Fairy Glen Private Game Reserve in Worcester, in northern Boland this past weekend.
The rhinos survived the attack, but one of them had to have an abortion due to the strain put on her body by poachers.
Game farm owner Pieter de Jager says the rhinos had been darted with an overdose of M99, a morphine drug, and their horns were hacked off with pangas.
De Jager is appealing to the government to place strict regulation on the distribution of M99
