You probably heard or seen the new campaign where some individuals and even officials of CITES are advocating for burning rhino horns. As a pro-rhino activist,( which means I am against illegal trade in rhino horn that kills rhinos and people of Africa due to poaching activities), my response to such actions: It is not sustainable to promote the burning of rhino horn which is a renewable wildlife product and not harmful to humans. Also it is not the demand in rhino horn that kills rhinos but the way demand gets supplied. Under current law horn costs rhino a life because there is no legal way to obtain it. There was NEVER a legalized trade in rhino horn, only unregulated trade which was banned by CITES in 1977. Time to change the law and legalize trade in rhino horn, to give a rhino cup of life. Save rhino life not rhino horn. Horn grows back. Albina Hume, pro-rhino activist. https://youtube/watch?v=Y_G8XDJR4Q4
