Only 42 of 1,000 people interviewed said that they had ever bought or used rhino horn. Buyers and users occurred in all municipalities, in both urban and rural areas. Both males and females bought and used rhino horn. Buyers and users occur across all socioeconomic classes except for the very poor (which were not part of this survey). Buyers and users believe that the following health problems are helped by rhino horn: rheumatism, cancer, effects of a stroke, hangover, impotence and fever. Many buyers buy rhino horn to give as presents to their family or boss. The vast majority of buyers and users obtain rhino horn from their friends or relatives (an extremely small percent obtain horn from a traditional medicine pharmacy, doctor or clinic). About a quarter of buyers and users said they did not know that it is illegal to buy and sell rhino horn. Most buyers and users know that rhinos are impacted by people obtaining rhino horns and that there are not enough rhinos to fulfill human demand for rhinos, but about a third of buyers and users said it did not matter to them if rhinos went extinct.
