Rhino Poaching vs Rhino Sales

As a Conservationist their is no doubt in my mind that animals cannot compete for habitat in a capitalistic society with out monitory value. Emotional out cries against hunting and animal products has lead to many species loosing the race against alternative land usage and even though many people are shouting Eco-tourism it proved stupid to  base the health of large Eco-systems on the success of World Economy. With action and adventure sport, cheap destinations and Discovery channel setting expectations the foreign tourism market have no way to support the animal population explosion in South African Game Reserves.

As long as some thing has a monitory value there will be money to protect it. Let us take Gold, Oil and Drugs for an example. The new G.O.D of the world.
