Save the Rhinos!
Guys, This is an appeal by Avaaz.org to collect 1M signatures that hopefully will put pressure on the EU to put pressure on China and Vietnam to stop trade in rhino horn. We all know on this side of the World that it has no medicinal properties, its basically made of the same stuff as our finger and toe nails, keratin. I'll gladly save my finger and toe nail clippings and send them freely
An except from the Avaaz site,
'The rhino is being hunted into extinction and could disappear forever unless we act now. Shocking new statistics show 440 rhinos were brutally killed last year in South Africa alone -- a massive increase on five years ago when just 13 had their horns hacked off. European nations could lead the world to a new plan to save these amazing creatures but they need to hear from us first!'The sign-up to Avaaz takes just a minute, so please make the effort. Just imagine a World without the Rhino! Its something that does not bare thinking about. So spread the word if you can
Mike
