Africa: Poachers use geotagged safari photos to track endangered animals

Please always keep in mind while on safari that the photos of endangered animals you take and share online might also contain the exact co-ordinates to the picture. This will allow tech-savvy poachers to come in after dark and track the animal. Please switch off the geotag option/gps feature on your smartphone or gps-enabled digital camera while out in the bush. #savetherhinos
