This article examines green militarization, rhino anti-poaching efforts and the spatial contours of Kruger National Park. It illustrates how the spatial qualities of protected areas matter immensely for the convergence of conservation
and militarization and the concrete forms this convergence takes. These include its status as a national park framed by a semiporous international border and its expansive, often dense terrain. It equally shows how spatial contours authorize militarization only once
they articulate with particular assumptions and values; for Kruger these amount to political–ecological values regarding the nation-state, its sovereignty, and its natural heritage. The result is an intensifying interlocking of conservation and militarization

Transboundary conservation and militarized interstate disputes
The AA. empirically test how transboundary protected areas (TBPAs) are related to militarized interstate disputes (MIDs) between contiguous states. Through the use of global data on protected areas and MIDs,they find that TBPAs tend
