Anthony Lewis I agree but the poachers are just bit players here, China is the vortex for all of this why just blame the poachers,? many are poor and are paid a pittance they do not earn huge money the buyers do! And the gang ring leaders but who profits the most are the Chinese. Without CHINESE demand these beautiful creatures will still be with us. This won’t sadly be the last headline re extinction as they won’t stop.

I really don't mean that...but i am very emotional right now...... Sorry.

BTW.... Word from back home, and in the news, is that China is slowly taking over Africa.

To save the species, I would have rounded up as many Rhinos as possible and bread them in captivity where poachers would not be able to get to them. desperate measures have to be taken in desperate situations.

Fish Fillet There species is not extinct . There are southern thinks aswell.

If you're over 20, you've already seen over a dozen go extinct, just not ones we'd care to talk about... like Pinta Tortoise of the Galapagos islands, Formosan Clouded Leopard, Caribbean Monk Seal, West African Black Rhinoceros, Christmas Island Pipistrelle, Madagascar Hippopotamus, Yangtze River Dolphin... we could keep going back about 50 years and cover another 60 or so. If you are healthy, you'll see many more.

Don't worry they shall respawn.

Ditto !!

Your prayers don't work

zane Smith He was cuddling his balls Nice observation of you.

Umm ok

Why exposing yourself, creep?

they probably have male white rhino sperm samples that they can use to impregnate Sudan's daughter

d4unit incest rhinos

ffs wht would they do if they die out?

Rhino horn is used as aphrodisiac by chinese herbalist doctors for randy rich chinese guys, the guards for these animals are sometimes attacked and killed to get to the rhino horn more expensive than platinum.

extinction is a part of life... 99.9% of species that ever lived are extinct... and the planet could not support them all if they all remained and there is no god

and that is ok not every species can survive forever

extinction is a part of evolution... its not our duty to protect every species its ok if humans make some animals extinct, its unavoidable as the human population explodes and needs more resources and land.

we dont need every last species to survive... we can farm what we need and keep most in captivity for study and medical use... theres no need for millions of wild animals to roam free when the planet is over populated and getting worse And animals living in the wild generally suffer far worse and live shorter lives than in the wild, with no protection from disease and each other...

ok thats true, but we can keep the biosphere stable with only a few dozen species, we dont need rhinos, we dont need exotic animals to survive, just renewable food like cows and chickens we dont need to preserve things and stop any changes from taking place to the food chain we can adapt

Joe Biden's Shotgun I mean, not every person is. But yeah, anyone who poaches is wretched.

That would be against their will.

There are only 2 left and they’re both females. So, their species is basically f**ked.

"White" and "Black" are just two species of rhinos that are actually about the same color. There are still male and female SOUTHERN white rhinos, but Sudan was the last male of the northern sub-species.

"A popular theory of the origins of the name "white rhinoceros" is a mistranslation from Dutch to English. The English word "white" is said to have been derived by mistranslation of the Dutch word "wijd", which means "wide" in English. The word "wide" refers to the width of the rhinoceros's mouth. So early English-speaking settlers in South Africa misinterpreted the "wijd" for "white" and the rhino with the wide mouth ended up being called the white rhino and the other one, with the narrow pointed mouth, was called the black rhinoceros."

They are species types. The Black Rhino's are extremely aggressive !!

I learned something new today... Cheers Eh!

why would you want to breed out the white rhino?

Meaning bring out
