Stop Poaching Rhinos

Stop Poaching Rhinos!

A rhino is an animal that is one of the big five( elephants, rhinos, cheetah, lion, buffalo) of South Africa. The rhino is special for its 2 horns which are sold for $65000 per horn. They say that the horns are used for traditional asian medicine and can cure many illnesses but, actually the horns DO NOT cure anything. When the rhinos are poached, both their horns are cut off, tons of blood comes out of their nose and where the horn is cut. Last year when I went to the Kruger National Park in South Africa, I saw 4 rhinos(with their horns) and I felt very glad because there are only about 5,005 rhinos left in the WORLD. Rhinos are innocent, precious, loving animals and they do not need to be killed for a useless horn!
