Rhino links
1. Fake rhino attempts zoo escape, in Japan. Might the real rhino be more fierce? Pointer from Ryan McCarl.
2. Killing a rhino by mistake in an anti-poaching demo. Pointer from George Edwards.
3. South Africa sends rhino poachers to jail for twenty-five years each; a lot of the demand comes from here. At $40,000 a kilogram, “Traffickers and gangs have been breaking into museums and auction rooms in Britain and Europe to steal rhino heads and horns.” It is now feared that the eighty-five rhinos housed in British zoos will be the next target and so a high alert has been called.
