1. I hate hearing this shit.

2. They are now hacking off their faces while still alive. With a chainsaw

I can't think of anything more evil than this. All is being sold to the Chinese Market.

3. I wish I didn't read your post.

Too upsetting.

4. There are 100,000 elephants that were glad you read it

They all saw someone who cared noticed they died.

5. What countries do these butcherings occur in?

And why can't they find the bastards who do these ?

6. The end market drives the slaughter.

7. Blame the Chinese

they are the ones who demand it. If you and your children were starving and the solution to your poverty and hunger was poaching an elephant, the choice would not be hard.

8. Really sad

We're going to have to explain to our kids that all these cool animals used to live but now they're extinct because Chinese people couldn't get an erection and other awesome reasons like that.

Poaching needs to be dealt with immediately.
