My son linked me to this jewel of a story.

One weird thing about the whole story is China has contributed much to the world by way of medicine and information about health from way back and yet fools over there think that glorified fingernail clippings (rhino horn) will give them wood when nothing else will.

Looks like he got his just rewards .
My friends who lived in Africa tell me that elephants, when angered, are deadly, very deadly .

Quote:
if you own a car with a fanfare horn - the quickest way to suicide is to blow it near a herd of elephants (near meaning within 2 miles). That sound is about 90% similar to a baby elephant crying in pain. You wont have to worry about just the mother elephant looking angry, the entire herd will gang up and move in on your tail and make sure everything is OK. This "everything is OK" usually translates to a dead human along with a land cruiser that now looks like a crushed car ready for recycle and some really gory scenes nonetheless. Rhinos are even worse - they are nearly blind and can move very quick for their size - Your heavy armored vehicle is a toy for it so best stay away from them and dont beleive your usual rifle hurts them, it feels like a mosquito bite to them.
