Do you realy think it will stop poaching RP?
Man was placed in charge and given the duty of caring for all creation, are we doing it?

No. Poaching has always been there! But it will take a lot of potential scoundrels out of the equation, so they can retire! And give a window of opportunity as markets and syndicates readjust!

It will not stop poaching,....
'cause reaping might cost a bullet,
when cultivating comes at a hefty
price.
A crazy idea supporting a lousy habit!!!

Re: SANPARKS now Supports Legalised Rhino Horn trade
I would love to be proved wrong, but I agree that legalising the trade will only fuel the demand and cause an increase in poaching. 

Re: SANPARKS now Supports Legalised Rhino Horn trade
I’m with you on this one Flutts as legalizing the trade takes a major risk factor out of the equation and because of this more will be encouraged to poach

SANPARKS now Supports Legalised Rhino Horn trade,
Very lousy idea, why, 'cause it cuts them out off the
equation where responsibility lies to the effect of
nature conservation!!!

Well, if you read their new vision and mission, this will help them succeed! 

Sometimes it’s not until you don’t see what you want to see, that you truly open your eyes.
