1 Poacher is trampled to death by elephants while 'lining up a shot' to kill a white rhino

Two men with a high-powered rifle and an axe had crossed into the iconic Kruger National Park in South Africa looking for a potential £10,000 payday with a single shot.

But unknown to them the white rhino herd had been following a water source along with a group of nearby African elephants sheltering from the harsh sun under trees.

As the pair closed in on the rhinos – whose horn per ounce is worth more than gold or cocaine on the black market – the elephants broke cover and charged them.

A Kruger National Park source said: 'The two ran in different directions but the one lining up the shot was the slowest to his feet and the elephants went for him first.

'He was quickly overrun and the elephants trampled him into the earth and all that we found was basically a very large blood stain around the clothing he was in.
