Wow, really?
Looks like someone should update their trolling tactics to get with the times.
The picture shows a female rhino in Tugela Private Game Reserve, Colenso, Natal, South Africa, November 9, 2010, that four months earlier survived a brutal dehorning by poachers who used a chainsaw to remove her horns and a large section of bone in that area of her skull. The female rhino survived the dehorning and has joined up with a male bull who now accompanies her. Rhino horn is now worth more than gold on the international market. South Africa alone has lost more than 400 rhino to illegal poaching incidents in 2011. The demand for Rhino horn is fueled by a wealthy Asian middle and upper class and used overwhelmingly as medication.

So let's move our fiat currency to a rhino horn standard. Makes as much sense as anything else. At least rhino horn is a renewable resource...

Also the rhino that was de-horned had a calf but it was killed after the attack 
the Rhino is probably going to die out in the wild soon and i think that is such a shame |

Would raising your own rhinos be akin to counterfeiting?

I demand public flogging, followed by drawing and quartering for anyone found to be attempting to poach, or with poached rhino horn.

Sad. Rhino horn is just keratin, might as well save up all your fingernails, grind them up and eat them.

The Oatmeal Butterscotch paired with a Snickerdoodle
turned my cynical penis into a happy vagina
Then after an Oatmeal Cranberry and Double Chocolate,
it made my new vagina spontaneously sing the Trolololo Song in an elevator.
