WHY KILL US?

I GRAZE AND RUN FREE. I DON'T HARM YOU, SO WHY HARM ME??

The White Rhino, Slaughtered by unscrupulous poachers for their valuable horns and for sport, only 5 remain in the entire world - and all of these in captivity.

One of the most important protected areas for eastern black rhinos is Ol Pejeta Conservancy in central Kenya. Here men and woman put their lives in danger to protect the last few remaining Rhino. Without them we might as well say good bye to the entire Rhino species.

Conservationists are now resorting to desperate measures like stem cells and IVF to preserve this subspecies.

It may be too late for the northern white rhino - but there's still time to help other subspecies of rhino.

With fewer than a thousand eastern black rhino remaining, your support is essential to help us prevent this tragic situation occurring again.

The Rhino horn is more valuable on the black market than diamonds and cocaine.
Rhino Horn is used for Traditional Chinese medicines.

In today's society we should know better, killing off these beautiful creatures for greed and a trophy on the wall. To have our picture taken and shown on social media. We need to stop all this mindless killing. If we carry on killing for greed and a trophy, what will our children's children know. Seeing what a rhino skeleton looks like in a museum?

So lets stop being greedy and wanting that trophy on the wall. Lets give our children's children something to look forward to... Seeing them in the Bush and not a Museum

Sort:  

very sad @southafricangirl and your we are not far of from our children only seeing this in books. We can be the most destructive species on this planet pure greed pure vanity :(

You know, that is sad to hunt for sport

it sure is very sad, but people do it and they love having their pictures taken next to the dead animal. Makes me sick just thinking about it
