The Department of Wildlife and National Parks in Botswana has taken delivery of a factory-new Quest Kodiak 100. The department will operate the Kodiak for logistical missions, departmental duties, anti-poaching and law enforcement. More than a third of the African elephant population is located in Botswana, which also maintains a growing rhino sanctuary. With a recent ban on hunting, the country is well-known for its position on poaching and sees the Kodiak as an integral part of enforcing that ban in the future.
