I found out today we have lost another animal to extinction,
the black Rhino.
These species have been declared critically extinct since 2006 & yet we have not done enough to save them from their impending doom.
Whats the difference between Black& White Rhinos?
Black rhinos developed a pointed lip which they use to pick fruit from branches and select leaves from twigs; white rhinos have a flat, wide lip to graze on grasses. So why call them white or black? In Afrikaans and in English – “weid” or “wide” lipped rhino was mistakenly understood to be white rhino.

Their extinction comes
through a lack of properly funded governed conservation of the species and the
high priced horns have lured poachers to slaughter every single one. Though
poaching is a problem, more conservation areas should have been put in place
with proper authority figures. I do not blame poaching as much as for those
poor Africans, imagine being told for one horn of a rhino you will be able to
feed your family for the week , even a month. No argument there. Proper
authority figures & regulations should have been put in place.
To protect further species from extinction some world
governing body should put in places for conservation and employ the local
people (sustainability there) to run the
area and have a proper regulation of these standards& practices whilst also
having an authority figure to properly safeguard these areas and future
endangered species.
Now to introduce a new blog for you music fans! My great
mate has a passion for music like no one else I know and now he has dedicated
some his own personal time to making a blog where he shall review albums of the
great metal & rock bands of all time!
