The idea of staining or dying rhino horns seems like the solution to deter poachers but is logistically a very difficult and expensive option. Already a group of black rhinos have been removed from a poaching hot spot in south Africa to relative safety in Botswana in order to save them from a cruel and unnecessary death. That rhino horn is worth more than gold puts the danger these amazing animals are in from being poached into perspective but what can be done to save them. Asia continues to feed the demand for not just rhino horn but ivory, and the bones and teeth from big cats because of their insatiable need for status symbols to declare their new wealth. If you can afford ground rhino horn to treat all sorts of ailments then it shows you are wealthy. Sadly rhino horn does not cure anything or help libido, all that happens is that a massive harmless animal that has walked the earth for millions of years needlessly loses it's life.
