Actually, turns out the alternative is capitalism, all the goddamn things.
When I was a kid, rhinos were about to disappear. One rhino subpopulation, the southern white rhino, was in a country that legalized the ranching of rhinos and the sale of their horn through a legal market. The others were treated with conventional environmentalism.
In the interim, a couple of species went extinct, and there are few left even in captivity of several species...
Except for the southern white rhino. There are tens of thousands of them! Watching this happen has been almost the largest red pill of my whole life. As a real conservationist, results are what I want: not slogans and tear-jerking songs.
The alternative is poachers killing all of them.
Kill the poachers then if they get caught and make it so severe that they'll have to really think about if it's worth it or not.
I would love for that to happen. Sadly, Africa is corrupt as fuck as is expected.
And is wholly owned by China now.
I always wondered why there’s no advertising for hunting poachers?
For chinese medicine.
