Poaching the Pretty

I happen to find Rhinos very amusing in a weird way. The only problem is I doubt I will ever be able to see any in my life. The reason is because all types of Rhinos have been put on the endangered species lists. Why? Well people in Africa and other parts of the world happen to find the horns of a Rhino very valuable and decide to kill the animal just to make a quick profit. I find this extremely awful and that only 18000 Rhinos are left in Africa. The Rhino population used to be over 50000 20 years ago, then the horns started to sell on the black market. I think that in order to preserve the Rhino population Africa nations need to step in and start protecting the environment.
