Vietnam's Appetite For Rhino Horn Drives Poaching In Africa

Africa is facing a growing epidemic: the slaughter of rhinos.

So far this year, South Africa has lost more than 290 rhinos — an average of at least two a day. That puts the country on track to set yet another record after .

Behind the rise in killings are international criminal syndicates and global economic change. Poachers have gone high-tech, using helicopters, silencers and night vision goggles to meet the growing demand for rhino horn in East Asia, especially Vietnam.

There are many people who believe that farming exotics to provide a legal and controlled source of these potion fillers would relieve the strain on these animals. I believe it is impossible to tell legal rhino horn from illegal rhino horn. Track down these banditos and give them a taste of their own medicine. As to the witch doctors who need this ill gotten loot. They must be driven out of business by any and all means. You can't be nice to these bastards.
