Anti-Poaching is the site event for March.

The currency for this month is Rhino Beetles.
Rhino Beetles can be found in Explore.

All biomes will have the Explore encounters!
Biome, karma, and level do not matter for events.

During March, players are working towards unlocking three tiers in one area.
The Black Market is unlocked by defeating and chasing off poachers in Explore and earning Poacher Points!

As well, with each Anti-Poaching event, Lioden donates proceeds to International Anti-Poaching Foundation and Tusk. Lioden also supports the Kevin Richardson Foundation, International Rhino Foundation, and Panthera. If you're interested in these charities or would like to read more, we recommend checking out Lioden's Conservation Efforts page.

All encounters this month show up in both Day and Night time.

A baby elephant is rubbing its head against dead mother's body, clearly murdered by poachers.
Action	Result	Reward
Kill	Being an opportunist, you jump at the calf and kill it. You can't drag much back home, so the small elephant is a handy victory.	+1 Rhino Beetle +1 Elephant Calf Carcass -3 Karma
Nudge	You approach the calf and try to nudge it, encouraging it to let go of the mom. You can smell the scattered elephant group in the distance, so you push the scared baby towards that direction. Out of respect (and hard skin), you do not touch the carcass; instead you grab at some gathering carrion critters.	+1 Rhino Beetle +12 SB +1 Rat Carcass +3 Karma
Wait	Taking a decision to wait it out, you hide nearby until the baby wanders away towards a distant elephant noise, probably a scattered herd. Quietly, so the elephants won't punish you, you sneak to the carcass, trying to gather some food from the open parts of the body.	+2 Rhino Beetles +2 Medium Meat Chunks

A bucking African wild ass has just crossed your path! This rare donkey must have travelled far, searching for a true wilderness to call home.
Action	Result	Reward
Show the Way	Having a wider variety of prey certainly wouldn't hurt your pride! You call out to the donkey, eager to show it some nice spots to check out. Perhaps it will move in with its herd and repopulate!	+2 Rhino Beetles +2 Prevent Points +2 Karma
Pounce	You wiggle your rump in the air and leap at the animal while its back is turned towards you! As you're both falling to the ground, you give its throat a long, powerful bite. Your day is made - donkey meat is delicious!	+1 Rhino Beetle +1 Donkey Carcass -2 Karma

A creature is climbing a safou tree, shaking it a little. It seems that insects are feeding on the tree's rotting fruit. What a perfect spot for the tree pangolin!
Action	Result	Reward
Shake the Tree!	You stretch up and sharpen your claws on the bark. The tree shakes, disturbing the pangolin, who is now holding on tightly in fear of being eaten. Something small falls down onto the ground, and it's not a fruit!	+2 Rhino Beetles +1 Pangolin Scale -2 Karma
Search the Ground	You decide to scope the area, curious if there's anything here other than rotting fruit, flies, and ants. Bird droppings… hm. But, hey! You find some scales scattered below the tree trunk.	+2 Pangolin Scales
Dig Around	You sniff around the tree trunk and listen closely. There's something crunching below the surface, between the tree's roots. You wouldn't have guessed the source, if not for the line of ants crawling out of a small hole nearby. You dig furiously, uncovering a large ant nest! The pangolin gets excited about this rich dinner and gives you something in gratitude.	+2 Rhino Beetles +1 Pangolin Scale +2 Karma
NOTE: This encounter will only show up once Tier One of the Black Market has unlocked.

A distressed long-tailed pangolin is wiggling around among the branches. You notice it's entangled in a poaching net and is having trouble climbing properly.
Action	Result	Reward
Grab the Rope	You stretch out to the very tips of your toes, trying to reach the net. You manage to catch it with your claw and gently pull it off from between the sharp scales. The pangolin is very grateful!	+2 Rhino Beetles +1 Prevent Point +1 Karma
Grab the Tail	You decide it's more convenient for you to take advantage of the animal's current condition. You try to pull it down, but the more you pull at its tail, the more entangled it becomes. Eventually, what ends up on the ground besides debris are parts of the body that you're barely able to scrape some meat out of.	+1 Rhino Beetle +1 Pangolin Scale +1 Small Meat Chunk -1 Karma
NOTE: This encounter will only show up once Tier Two of the Black Market has unlocked.

A giant pangolin is waddling towards a termite mound. It does not seem bothered by your presence.
Action	Result	Reward
Bop It	You scoot closer and extend your paw, then… you bop the pangolin. And you bop it again. And again! The creature playfully tries to bop you, too, but its long claws made you jump back right onto a small carcass hidden in the bush!	+50 Experience +1 Scimitar Oryx Calf Carcass +1 Karma
Twist It	You stand at its side and push it! The pangolin rolls and squirms in surprise. You try to attack it, but you only managed to chip off some of its scales.	+50 Experience +1 Pangolin Scale -1 Karma
Pull It	You grab the creature's tail between your teeth and try to pull it! The pangolin rolls into a ball immediately and tackles you. Something cracks as you fall down! Oh, phew - it's not your spine, and it's not one of your legs. It's… a broken drone!	+50 Experience +1 Broken Drone
NOTE: This encounter will only show up once Tier Two of the Black Market has unlocked.

A group of people appears in a safe distance from you and they seem to free an animal from a trap. They leave in a machine, and you think, maybe not all humans are so bad.
+1 Rhino Beetle +3 Prevent Points

A huge tree is covered in blood that catches your attention. There's a human poacher pinned to the bark with a broken elephant tusk. Instant karma, they say.
Action	Result	Reward
Climb	You climb the tree, trying to snatch whatever you can from the corpse. Being a big and clumsy beast, you fall on your back, hurt, but the trophy is yours!	-5% Energy +1 Human Leg +1 Small Meat Chunk +1 Broken Elephant Tusk -3 Karma
Sniff Air	You decide to wander under the tree, sniffing around. Between blood splats and broken branches you find the reason of the elephant's wrath - which you decide to take.	+1 Rhino Beetle +1 Poacher Gun +1 Elephant Calf Carcass

A lonely oryx calf is calling for its mom; obviously lost after running away from predators or poachers.
Action	Result	Reward
Snatch It	You jump ahead, chasing only a little bit after the calf, to finally sink your teeth into the trembling body.	+2 Rhino Beetles +1 Oryx Calf Carcass -1 Karma
Nudge It	Wanting to save the baby for future tasty offspring, you roar at the calf, but it freezes in fear. You nudge it towards a bushy area, where finally the oryx dashes into.	+3 Rhino Beetles +1% Impression +2 Karma

A roar in the sky caught your interest, and as a curious kitty you followed the noise to find a huge machine monster in a clearing. Human scent is fresh, but they already left.
Action	Result	Reward
Investigate	You check out the monster with your scent, sight, paws and teeth. It's not really nommable, so after scratching your claws against the machine, you leave it very broken, not knowing it will cut the poacher's way home. Or maybe you knew?	+1% Impression +50 Experience +7 Prevent Points +1 Helicopter's Tail Rotor +3 Karma
Hide	You hide behind a nearby rock and wait. After some time the humans come back, dragging an animal carcass in a bag. You ambush them, managing to hurt two guys before they scatter in fear. The trophy is yours, too.	+3% Impression +5 Prevent Points +1 Sable Antelope Carcass +1 Karma

A saker falcon swoops by, hunting some feral pigeons. You imagine yourself as a great army leader with this beautiful bird on your shoulder.
Action	Result	Reward
Chase!	Woo! The breeze is chilly and the rush gets your blood pumping! You race the falcon, but it wins, to the surprise of no one. Obviously, it's insanely fast. Oh, well! It dropped a consolation prize just for you.	+1 Rhino Beetle +1 Small Bird Carcass
	Woo! You race the falcon through clumps of grass and warm dirt, but the bird wins! Obviously, it's just too fast. It dropped a consolation prize for losers just like yourself. What a nice guy.	+1 Rhino Beetle

Action	Result	Reward
Smells Like Dinner	You don't even break a sweat when you grab the prey by the neck and walk away.	+1 Rhino Beetle +1 Duiker Carcass -1 Karma
Guard It	You walk by the animal's side, guarding it as it scurries away into a safe area, where it blends with the surroundings.	+1 Rhino Beetle +1% Impression +1 Karma

A tiny, shivering caracal cub is in front of you, scared to death and orphaned due to poaching.
Action	Result	Reward
Approach	You move closer, trying to see what you're dealing with. The caracal kitten cries in fear and tumbles over a slope, falling onto the rocks below. Maybe it was for the best, it's not like it would survive alone..	+1 Caracal Skull -1 Karma
Shake Mane	You shake your mane with a manly roar, trying to show the cub to stop crying and man up. Times are tough, but he needs to carry on!	+1% Impression
Snarl	You growl at the cub, catching its attention. It seems to crawl closer and curls up on top of your paws, seeking warmth. You let it rest in the safe presence of your powerful claws, protecting it for the rest of the day, until you both part ways.	+2% Impression +1 Karma
NOTE: This encounter has a chance to be a trap, regardless of your main male's level.

An ensnared Ethiopian Wolf is growling at you as you come near.
Action	Result	Reward
Try to Free It	While the wolf is yowling at you in fear, you try to break the snare. You finally figure out where you have to sink your claws and pull really hard and it opens just enough for the animal to make a run for it. It didn't even thank you. Rude.	+2 Rhino Beetles +2 Prevent Points +1% Impression +2 Karma
Leave It Be	You decide to let the fate deal with the wolf. What if it has rabies or something? As you walk away, you find a possible lure humans left to attract the carnivore.	+1 Rhino Beetle +1 Dorcas Gazelle Carcass +1 Puku Carcass
End Its Suffering	You crush the wolf's ribcage with your mighty paw, feeling the last wheeze of life escape under your weight.	+2 Rhino Beetles +2% Impression -3 Karma

Behold! An ancient primal spirit has possessed this shaman! "Finally, I've found the strong lion I've been seeking. The spirits are disturbed, joined suddenly by the ones who were killed as mere trophies… too early, too many." She speaks deeply in her trance, whilst a feral spirit begins to manifest before your very eyes.
Action	Result	Reward
Listen	The hunters shall become the hunted. These humans must pay the price for their cruel, evil deeds. You must spawn a cub that will be used as the tool for our revenge. This tool will let us, the ancient spirits, rise up in the form of a Ferus, to bring a devastating end to all poaching." The shaman approaches you and hands you a pouch of herbs. You have been granted a rare gift - use it wisely!	+1 Mukombero

Gasp! This huge rhino has noticed you, but thankfully it does not seem to be aggressive.
Action	Result	Reward
Approach	You sit down in the shadow of the colossal animal and rub your head against its belly, doing your best to show your good intentions.

NOTE: This encounter has a chance to be a trap, regardless of your main male's level.

Gasp! This is unbelievable! A true Atlas Lion wandered here, maybe all the way from the Atlas Mountains. Could it be a lion reintroduced to the wild? Or maybe they're not extinct after all? Either way he looks like a massive guy.
Action	Result	Reward
Spar!	Initiates a fight with a Lion.	+1 Rhino Beetle if battle is won.
Admire	You take a step back and sit down to check out that giant mane, catching a small break. As the male wanders around and roars deeply, you can feel the tremble in your lungs which sends shivers down your spine. This guy better produce some amazing cubs in the future. It would be awesome to see Atlas lions running around!	+5% Energy +1 Karma
NOTE: This encounter has a chance to be a trap, regardless of your main male's level.

High pitched squeaks catch your attention, revealing a lonely rhino. It wanders away from its mom's corpse, which is sadly missing its horn.

Sit Nearby	You sit down a few meters away and observe the cub with compassion. It decides to curl next to you and doesn't protest when you lick blood off of its head. The cub will learn how to avoid traps for the future and teach its own offspring as well.	+4% Impression +4 Karma
Growl	A heartless scoundrel, you growl at the cub in hopes of shooing it away. It won't go, so you end its misery. Clingy wimps won't survive in the wild.	+1 Serval Skull +1 Serval Tail -2 Karma

Oh no! You find a dead, field-dressed zebra. Some nasty poachers must have skinned it on sight. An injured but alive foal is standing next to it, too attached to its mother to return back to its herd. While it's too late to save the parent, maybe you can help the baby?
Action	Result	Reward
Take the meat	You ignore the foal and drag away the carcass, eager for the valuable meat.	+3 Large Meat Chunks -5 Karma

This orphaned cheetah cub is sitting helplessly in shock from losing its parents to poachers.
Action	Result	Reward
Kill It	You decide to quickly kill the cub. It wouldn't survive all by itself - better to spare it death from starvation.	+1 Cheetah Skull -1 Karma
Roar	You let out a warning roar. After all, a cheetah is a cheetah and eats your food - they can outrun you anyway! This one, however, seems unable to master that skill and trips over an eroding ledge. It falls into a crocodile infested mudbank with a splat. At least now you know where not to walk..	+50 Experience
Purr	You're big and clumsy, but you sit down and try to purr a bit to catch the cub's attention. It scoots closer and sits with you, purring, till you part ways after some time, when the cub seems less sad.	+1% Impression +1 Karma

NOTE: This encounter has a chance to be a trap, regardless of your main male's level.

This weird rhino has a hole in its horn. It seems to bleed an odd colour from the man-made wraps. After seeing so many rhinos with their faces cut off, you start to think some humans are trying to prevent that from happening again.

What's this strange antelope? He calls himself a Persian fallow deer, and says he comes from the distant Middle East. He's here to search for new forests, as the ones in his homeland are disappearing.
Action	Result	Reward
Give Directions	You greet the deer, asking what sort of preference he has regarding his new home. You listen closely through his accent and figure out that a riparian woodland would be the best to suit him! You both walk along the river shore, where you find a hippo rotting away. The deer seems quite content that the rotting meat is more interesting to you than his herd, so he walks away unnoticed as you investigate the carcass.	+1 Rhino Beetle +4 Prevent Points +1 Hippo Fat The chance to receive this outcome is very low.
	You greet the deer, curious about his preferences. He has a thick accent, but thankfully you're able to make out a "river" and a "forest". You show the deer to a small stream, which trails off to feed a bigger river. You suggest that he and his herd go down south, where the weather is less harsh. As you're parting ways, you catch a glimpse of vigorous fish in the water.	+2 Rhino Beetles +3 Prevent Points +1 Bream The chance to receive this outcome is low.
	You greet the deer, but you're having some trouble communicating with him. You aren't able to understand his accent very well.

Action	Result	Reward
Attack!	Initiates a fight with a Balbok.	+3 Rhino Beetles if battle is won.
Lie Down	You show your good intentions by laying down and slowly blinking at the antelope. He kicks at the ground a bit, but eventually calms down and leads his herd to a more secluded spot. Perhaps it's for the best if they don't venture out into the open, where poachers could see them. When you get up to move, you find something crawling in the dirt.	+2 Rhino Beetles +1 Prevent Point +1 Karma

You have spotted a faceless elephant body. It is surrounded by dead vultures. This looks suspicious.
Action	Result	Reward
Eat the Elephant	You decide that these small, weak vultures can't stomach what a grown lion can. You sit down to eat, but soon after you're in such great pain, it forces you to lie down for a few hours.	+3 Rhino Beetles -15% Energy Unlocks the Toxic title
Eat a Vulture	Perhaps the elephant is poisoned? These vultures seem like a waste of good meat, though. You grab one and eat the juicy breasts, but you feel really miserable afterwards. Perhaps a short nap will help you feel less nauseous.	+1 Rhino Beetle -5% Energy Unlocks the Buzzkill title
Scent Mark	You judge this carcass to be unsafe. You pee all over it to warn other carrion eaters.	+1 Prevent Point +1% Impression +1 Karma

Scavenge	Ignoring the gorilla, you are busy checking the camp for your own gain.	+2 Rhino Beetles +1 Bontebok Carcass -1 Karma

You see a dog tracking the scent of poachers, his human partners trailing not far behind.
Action	Result	Reward
Hide	You hide in the bush, wary of the canine and his sensitive nose. You watch the human pack pass you by. They must be focused on finding poachers. You wait a few more tense moments, scared that they might find and shoot you… but thankfully, the only touch you experience is that of a crawling insect.	+2 Rhino Beetles +2 Prevent Points +1 Karma
Growl	You snarl and let out a short, low growl. The dog falls into a panic and quickly runs away to warn his human friends of the gigantic predator nearby. You take the chance to investigate whatever it was that caught the dog's interest.	+1 Rhino Beetle +1 Prevent Point +1 Rugged Tire -1 Karma

You smell a group of poachers nearby. You crouch down to hide a bit, maybe to ambush them - but you suddenly hear loud noises and a bunch of other people are attacking them!

They should never come back.	+1 Rhino Beetle +2 Prevent Points +1% Impression -2% Energy
NOTE: This encounter will only show up once Tier One of the Black Market has unlocked.

You stumble upon an addax antelope with its young. They ventured very far from home to escape the distant shooting.

Traps  

Some of the encounters shown above have a low chance to actually be trapped, which will lead to an "It's a Trap!" message being displayed.

If an encounter does not say it has a chance to be a trap, it will not trap you.

These traps do not affect karma, and will replace whichever result you would have normally received from the action you chose for an encounter.

Depending on the encounter, if your main male's level is below 6, he will automatically be trapped!

The results are randomised throughout traps.
