Most of the people doing it are not some government organization. They’re often ragtag militias or straight up PMCs posing as environmentalists. In Africa particularly, many of these “anti poaching” militias are owned by former Rhodesian officers

You’ll do a lot more to protect the environment by killing coke executives and giving the money to the villagers nearby so they can stop poaching.
