The price of rhino horn on the black market has reached $30,000 a catty, and it is precisely because of the high price that the number of black rhinoceros poaching is increasing.
In order to protect the black rhinoceros, it is necessary to find a way to make this precious rhinoceros horn no longer precious, so someone came up with a solution, which is to inject poison into the rhinoceros horns of these black rhinoceros.
It seems that this is a good idea, because after the poison is injected, the rhino horn is no longer valuable, and the poaching can be reduced, however, the rhinoceros horn injected with the poison is not absorbed by the rhinoceros, but is excreted.
After these poison-infused rhino horns are taken out by these poachers, they will definitely run to the hospital for treatment because of the disgusting color, but in the end, they will find that they are not poisoned, but think that they have been deceived.
Reasons for dyeing rhino horn.
But the poachers didn't know that the poison was actually harmless to the black rhinos, but only had the effect of contaminating them, making the rhino horns lose their value in trading.
It is this plan implemented to protect the black rhinoceros that I don't know how many poachers are sent to the hospital for treatment, but even if these poachers go to the hospital, they don't get what they want after treatment.
Even if they want to poach again, they will tell the truth about being deceived and startle the snakes, so even if these poachers only get the dye that is excreted, then it also serves the purpose of stopping poaching.
However, this also raises questions about whether the way to protect animals is to change the animals themselves, or even to inject poison into them.
Is protecting animals destroying the animals themselves?
In this way, the people who intend to protect the animals for these animals may also become the ones who intend to destroy the animals.
Although this is not the final result, the process is inevitably unsettling, after all, the process of injecting animals with poison is a bad sign.
The end result is not a good result either, and naturally it will also affect those who protect the animals.
The rhinoceros has a long history, with a history of more than 70 million years, dating back to the late Cretaceous period when the fossils of the horned beast were found, and the species are also diverse, with only 5 species of rhinoceros extant, and all of them live on the African and Asian continents.
The rhinoceros has a relatively large impact on the terrestrial ecological environment, and it is a giant animal second only to the elephant among the existing terrestrial animals.
A species of rhinoceros that lives in warm and humid forests is called the Javan rhinoceros, and the black and white rhinos from Africa and the Sumatra rhinoceros from Western Asia live in the steppes and dry regions.
The other three are rhinos that inhabit the South Asian region.
The impact of rhinoceros on plants is enormous, especially in forested areas, with the ability to control the growth of trees and favor the formation of grasslands.
At the same time, they are the animals that are eaten, and they are the food of other animals.
Rhinos have a great social nature, generally composed of female rhinos and young rhinos constitute a basic group, and male rhinos are also independent individuals of the Hui people.
Rhinos feed on grasses and plants, and rhizome plants are a delicacy for them, satisfying the needs of the rhinoceros' four stomachs.
In ancient China, rhinoceros horn, also known as rhino horn, was both precious and rare, a status symbolizing item, often used as a raw material for making handicrafts, so the ancient rhinoceros was also flayed.
Rhinoceros is protected in many countries today, but there are still many poachers who make their way for it, and some countries even get rich in the way.
Poachers usually only kill the old, weak, sick and disabled rhinos, and the reason for this is that they are physically exhausted, and without this necessary process, they can escape the pursuit.
Try to save as much energy as possible, finish the killing quickly, try to avoid attracting the attention of other people, and at the same time, no one will mourn the loss.
The fur of the rhinoceros is very thick and can withstand many attacks, but the weapons used by hunters are guns, which are very penetrating, which can cause many rhinos to be hit and cause panic among other rhinos.
It can cause a lot of damage when escaping, and the injured rhino may die on the way to escape, and it may also leave damage for other rhinos, so try to avoid picking up leaks.
Environmental protection organizations.
The price of rhino horn on the black market has reached $30,000 a catty, and it is precisely because of the high price that the number of black rhinoceros poaching is increasing.
In order to protect the black rhinoceros, it is necessary to find a way to make this precious rhino horn no longer precious.
Just like in ancient times, in order to protect his palace, the emperor built a high and steep wall on the palace, and placed many sharp blades on the wall, the purpose was to prevent other people from hitting or climbing the wall.
But these measures did not help, only to force the enemies to change their attack methods, from hitting the walls to digging the walls, which eventually led to the palace being more majestic and the enemy more rampant.
This strategy of injecting poison into the rhinoceros can be useful compared to building walls, at least for a short time, but it can easily become ineffective if it continues for too long.
As for the physical aspects of animals, doctors have proven that even the world's most poisonous poisonous algae has no effect on black rhinos and Asian rhinos.
This also means that even if the rhinoceros is injected with poison, it will not have any effect on the animal, but this act of injecting poison into the animal will also affect the animal itself to a certain extent, breaking the law of animal survival.
There are only five species of black rhinoceros left in the world, and the only one that has survived is the last generation, Kenya when President Uhuru ·Kenya Pagoda burned 105 tonnes of ivory in 2016.
It was the largest destruction of ivory in Kenya's history.
The significance of this event is as the President of Kenya said: "Through the large-scale destruction of ivory, the illegal hunting gangs will completely realize that killing elephants will only make them lose their economic income."
Kenya, in particular, should keep these elephants for the next generation. ”
However, while these animal protection organizations protect animals, they inevitably inject poison into animals.
Is it possible to protect animals at the expense of their bodies, even their lives? Although these injected poisons do not cause much damage to the animals themselves.
But those animal protection organizations don't realize that the process of injecting animals with poison is itself a kind of harm that affects the animal's physical changes.
Protecting animals and harming them.
Aren't animal protection groups aware that this practice of altering animal bodies is in some way the same as poachers?
As some have pointed out, protecting animals is accompanied by injecting poison into them to alter their bodies.
Doesn't the conscience of these animal protectors hurt?
Even if these poisons are harmless, it cannot be denied that the injection of poison by these animals is a kind of harm at the same time, do they think that the bodies of these animals are not their own?
It is precisely because of this thinking that this kind of behavior is carried out to change the body of animals, and these animal protectors are also disapproved by more and more people because of this behavior, and even think that there is no difference between them and poachers.
So these animal protection workers, should they change the way they protect animals? Should the bodies of the animals be changed or should the behavior of those poachers be changed?
epilogue
In order to protect animals, humans have changed the bodies of animals, which has caused dissatisfaction among many people, but we cannot deny that this behavior of changing the bodies of animals has played a certain effect.
We can't deny that this behavior does not affect the animals themselves, and these animals are safer because of these measures, but with the long-term use of these measures, the animals may change, but this is a matter for the future.
So what we need to do now is stop the poachers, keep these animals out of harm, protect these animals from harm, and that's the most important thing.
