TEXT A THE RHINO REALITY 1 In Linda Fellowes’ illustrated children’s book, iThemba, a two-ton female rhinoceros and her friend Joe, embark on a mission to save her horn when the poachers invade the game park. In the story Fellowes highlights the seriousness of rhino poaching and the importance of preserving our wildlife resources. 5 2 iThemba may be a fictional rhino but her story is far from fiction. According to Rhino Force the world’s rhino population has declined by 90% since 1970. Over 560 rhino were poached in South Africa during 2012, the highest recorded annual figures. The Wilderness Foundation says that South Africa is custodian to over 80% of the world’s rhinos. Over 1,400 rhinos have been lost in the 10 past seven years. 3 In traditional Chinese medicine, rhino horn is an extremely valuable product. It is believed to, among others, reduce fever, cleanse the liver and body of toxins and possibly even cure cancer. Scientific studies on horns have proved that they are made up of keratin, much like our fingernails and hair and have 15 no medicinal value. 4 The Wilderness Foundation’s Sheelagh Antrobus says poachers are paid around R40,000 per kilogram for rhino horn. Poachers have no regard for the animal’s life and will chop the rhino’s spine or ankles to paralyse him before hacking off the horn. If the animal has not been shot, he will be left to bleed to 20 death. 5 According to the Endangered Wildlife Trust (EWT) the problem of rhino poaching is a global one and illegal wildlife trade is estimated to be the third largest illegal industry worldwide, after drugs and human trafficking. EWT believes there is no ‘silver bullet’ to stop the scourge of rhino poaching in 25 South Africa. Their aim is to keep the rhino alive for future generations by implementing a multi-pronged approach through interventions at each stage of the poaching chain. Rhino Project manager, Kirsty Berber, explains that the poaching chain has a number of role players. The poacher passes the horn to the middleman who employs a smuggler to get the horn across international 30 borders to the end-user. By implementing interventions at various stages in the chain, EWT believes the numbers of poached rhinos will decline. Copyright reserved Please turn over

Traumatised calves run off into the bush when their mothers are attacked and will perish 35 if they are not tracked and rescued. The function of the EWT’s Rhino Orphan Response Project is to rescue and rehabilitate orphaned rhinos. 7 Sniffer dogs have been used in the detection of contraband at airports for many years. Dogs have an extraordinary sense of smell. Breeds that are highly trainable and keen to work are well-suited to detection work. They can be 40 trained to detect all types of contraband, from illicit drugs and meat products to perlemoen and explosives. 8 Deploying sniffer dogs at international exit points forms part of EWT’s intervention strategy. Early in 2012 EWT imported its first sniffer dog from Germany to be trained on rhino horn. Rico, a two-year old Belgian Malinois 45 , has now completed his training and has already achieved success in his work. “Rico has indicated parcels in cargo on two different occasions,” explains Kirsty Brebner. “The first parcel was found to contain illegal rhino horn and the second parcel contained ivory and elephant skin.” 9 Through the Rhino Project, EWT is also providing training to judicial and 50 magisterial officers, members of the National Prosecuting Authority to ensure that when poachers or smugglers are caught and tried in a court of law, that sentencing is commensurate with the seriousness of the crime.

Read TEXT C below and list SEVEN points that you will include in your article on HOW TO CREATE A POSITIVE ATTITUDE. INSTRUCTIONS 1. Your summary must be written in point form. 2. List SEVEN points in full sentences using NO MORE than 70 words. 3. Number your sentences from 1 to 7. 4. Write only ONE point per sentence. 5. Use your OWN words as far as possible. 6. Indicate the number of words you have used in brackets at the end of your summary. TEXT C HOW TO CREATE A POSITIVE ATTITUDE A negative attitude can prevent you from fully enjoying your life. One of the best things you can offer anyone is your positive attitude. Sometimes one single event can ruin an entire day. With this awareness that your mind tends to cling to the negative, you can intentionally focus on the good parts of your day. Keep a gratitude journal. Learn to accept rejection. Chalk every broken heart and failed job interview as practice because no one goes through life without being rejected. The words that you use have power. If you describe your life as boring, that is how you will perceive it. Use positive words to describe your life. Do you ever notice how many times you say I have to do something? I have to go to work. Now replace the word have with get. I get to go to work. Your attitude will now change from needing to fulfil obligations to being grateful. It is hard to have hope and stay positive when hate and violence are all over the media. Notice the righteous in times of tragedy. Being positive does not mean that you have to be oblivious to problems. If you are going to point out problems, have solutions too. Set a goal each day to make someone else smile. Think about someone else’s happiness and you will realise the impact your attitude has on that person. [Adapted from www.fulfillmentdaily.com] TOTAL SECTION B: 10 Copyright reserved Please turn over

TEXT F BAY ACTIVISTS JOIN STAND AGAINST CANNED HUNTING 1 Animal activists in Port Elizabeth joined thousands around South Africa to march against canned lion hunting. 2 The activists, who say the practise is cruel and inhumane, marched from the Kings Beach parking lot to the Town Lodge. They called for an end to canned lion hunting. Similar marches was held in East London and Knysna. 5 3 The activist said that she thought lions in captivity were groomed for death. They spend most of their lives interracting with humans because they are hand-reared. At the end of the day, they don’t view humans as a threat because they have been desensitised to them. When a lion sees a hunter carrying a weapon it sees no danger because it’s been around humans all its 10 life. 4 The area in which canned hunting takes place ensures the animal is entrapped and cannot escape. Lions are put in an enclosure that is secured with an electric fence. These hunters are after the lion’s heads so they can hang them on their walls. In most cases a lion is shot several times. It dies a 15 slow, painful death.
