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



The easiest way to allow rhino horn trade is to allow for the private ownership of the animal and stop government form managing them. It has worked for the American Bison as well as several African species whose numbers on private ranches in Texas outnumber those in the wilds of Africa

Supply/Demand

If people wish to use that as a currency, that up to them. It's not as durable or portable like gold but individuals have the right to use whatever currency they wish to use.

I totally agree with you, kill all the rhinos.

Also all the bald eagles, koalas, polar bears, seals and honey bees.

I will trade you a bottom set of koala teeth for a set of rhino toenails.

The answer is simple: engineer pigs to grow rhino horns.

You'll have your bacon and your more-valuable-than-gold keratin all in one fell swoop.
