The area where South Africa, Mozambique and Zimbabwe meet at the confluence of the Limpopo and the Luvuvhu rivers in the Kruger Park is known as Crooks Corner. In the early 1900's, this region was the haunt of smugglers, poachers and hunters who based themselves in an assortment of derelict shacks in the area. The fugitives from the law could then just slip across one of the borders and take refuge in a foreign territory when the authorities came searching for them. The hunters at Crooks Corner realized that they could supplement their income from ivory by recruiting labour for the Witwatersrand mines, and an illegal trade in labour also began.
