Today I was informed that the Western Black Rhino has  become extinct in the wild. The last known family of these magnificent creatures has been poached for their horns. Why anybody would think they can make their d*** bigger by ingesting this  is absolutely absurd. There are also less than 10,000 elephants left in the wilds of Africa and they are being slaughtered at a rate of some 50+ per day....do the math and it becomes very clear how fast these animal gifts to man are quickly being wiped out.

I have no faith in mans ability to ever change for the greater good. I am glad however that I can come here to this site and see the creative side of mankind. Many of you seem to just keep your heads buried in your tablets and phones and forget that this is the true reality of our times. I am also mad because I have always dreamed of traveling the vast savannahs of Africa to see such creatures in their natural environments, but now because of religious wars and greed destroying everything this is no longer possible. :(

It's a terrible thing!!
I can't believe that in 2013 animals are still being slaughtered to the point of extinct!! Disbelief   Rage
I remember when I was little and hearing about the slaughter of the american buffalo, that was so sad I could believe it :(
I would have thought by now we would have learned  better! Sad
