Noted! I hope these two organizations are put out of business if they intend to kill these animals for their horns. This is a Rhino's weapon of protection from other predators.

Oops, MY bad. I read that wrong as I thought these two organizations were going to now bypass poaching and just target the horns as the horns are supposedly for aphrodisiacs. SO, NO ! I hope these two organizations are there to HELP these Rhinos!!!
