A Great Article on the Global Ivory Trade

G7 Summit June Special Print Edition

Here's an extremely well researched article on the global ivory trade. It highlights the decimation of both the Elephant and Rhino populations in Africa as well as the ramifications of the disastrous decisions taken by CITES.

Scumbag Groenwald still allowed to keep animals

Scumbag Groenwald, accused of multiple crimes related to Rhinos has had a Rhino "poached" from his Polokwane property in Limpopo, South Africa.

I first wrote about Scumbag Groenwald and his Scumbag wife and others way back in 2010.

It seems that he is still involved in keeping Rhino and has had one "poached" from his property. He is also wanted in the US for illegal hunting.

When the Scumbag was asked why he was in tears over the poaching, he said that he had looked after the bull for two years and you don't often get an animal like that.

Groenwald is also wanted in the US accused of organising illegal hunts.

It was more likely tears of relief. With the poached horn said to be worth $1M, the Scumbag could now have more than enough to fund a defence.

He will finally go to court in August to face the charges brought against him.

The dangers that face Rhino

Waterberg, Namibia 2011 

It sucks what we are capable of doing to animals! More Rhino are going to be poached again this year than ever. Even Namibia, which had seen only a small increase in Rhino poaching has already seen more Rhino poached in the first 5 months of this year than all of 2014!

Get behind organisations that protect these animals. Soon, your children will only be able to see these animals in zoos! If you have ever seen any in the wild, that's a pretty piss poor way to see one of the most impressive land animals around!
