ah Cher! my trust in your ability to find stories that touch us deeply is still intact.although i must admit i do like the happy ones better,thank you.even when it's bad you keep us informed,thank you and what can we expect from that backward country?they went from first in africa in food production etc. to not even able to support there people,so why is it any surprise that they slaughter those beautiful animals.and that outside influence comes from china
they use anything from animals and care not the cost!sadly someday they wont have anything left to poach,sadly

Thank you Mad Bob for pushing people to the brink with your insane, paranoid policies and contributing to rampant poaching and the extermination of this species, you'll be remembered by the world as one of the biggest @$$holes imaginable.
