As Seakolony spelled it out.., but as Blue Grass views the whole thing on the lines of a farm. First an update



Hume partners with 'Save the Rhino' NGO




if Oil & Electricity were not discovered in 19 century, I can understand a world developing sperm whale farms; but..

To sell a product that has imaginary function (cure for cancer) by farming a beast (rhinos as chickens); slicing its horn off like it were tapping rubber (the soft tissue inside bleeds then hardens over time); all this, in the name of saving it from smugglers suggests that:

a) in business, no such thing as good or bad; just short term profits.

b) the Law views people in context, in here as smugglers looking for quick cash making farming legit for survival of species

But the initial point remains,
there are some animals and birds; that should be left alone
consider them for future gens to appreciate nature.

tame an eagle, clip its wings and it is something else; no longer a partner in nature's system. A part of nature is what we term as Eco-conservatism. E-C is not limited to territories like mountains, islands, rivers, beaches; (in India, few open beaches, most fenced off by private housing);

but also the wild life they inhabit, and the Rhino should be counted in among this list.

So if you want a rhino horn, kill it; not its spirit and eventually it's DNA like we did with wolves to dogs.

anyway it's Africa's business,
