There's a bit of a difference between hunting a gazelle for its meat and another for poaching an endangered rhino for its horn.

Because otherwise rich people won't get to see them on safari.

No animal life is inherently more valuable than one another. The concept is absurd and so full of contradictions.

I'm not about to cheer the violent murder of a human being to preserve a fucking safari.

Nah fuck humans. The worst animals of them all. I wont advocate violence but I wont shed a tear over a dead poacher nor rich horn buyers. Humans can just make more humans, with ease. Rhinos aint never called me bad names. Im im the Rhinos corner.

Yes, the gazelle can feed your family for a week, the rhino horn can feed them for a year.

Dead poacher doesn't need food.

You’ll be cheering when they start killing climate refugees in a couple decades
