Rhino protection

I knew it was going on, but I was still distraught today after reading an article about the poaching of rhinos to steal their horns for unproven medicinal purposes. It showed one rhino under constant armed guard in an effort to protect it. Another rhino had its horn pulled off and eventually had to be put to sleep by vets as it couldnt support its head properly.

Everytime I think about this more tears well up. It has made me adopt a rhino in the hope every little bit helps.

It really scares me that some people have no compassion at all for any creature. They just don't care.
