Yeah, the Black Rhino went extinct a few months ago. It was a bummer and I don't think the rest of the world hardly noticed.![]()

It pisses me off because there was no need for that to happen. Using a little common sense and being responsible and the Black Rhino would be around another 1000 years. It's not even a matter of nature taking its course. Poachers literally wiped them from the face of the earth with their greed.
The real sad fact is that none of those animals, flora and fauna and all other living beings on this planet deserve to be taken forgranted, exploited or killed for just sport, I love to shoot, but don't hunt live animals, that last time I did I was 14 years old and it really broke my heart over the killing. There's a big difference between need and want! Human's are just inherently arrogant and have the mind set that everything else is below us. We are the ones that are committing the slow death of this planet. Oh, hell I better stop, I feel a big rant coming on and no one wants to see that! Well, not that it has stopped me before, but I'll sit on my hands until it passes.
