There will be RIVERS of tears if its all gone one day and what then? in the meantime a few are making a fast buck here.<br /><br />Very sadly the market has gone beyond the aphrodisiac and spread to other 'traditional' cures for big things like cancer and aids; and also as prestigeous ornaments for the new rich. <br /><br />but i agree - if we could bombard the youth of china with the information that rhinos and elephants DIE when you hack their faces off - perhaps they could put pressure on their elders. They are the future afterall.<br /><br />I am so glad you helped that swallow! hopefully you gave those shop people food for thought! did you see the swallow fly out? you are my hero for this (and everything else) xValhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16060531713032236270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-35890420554332554282012-07-11T12:01:06.376+02:002012-07-11T12:01:06.376+02:00Midlife Job Hunter - the pro hunting lobby has s...Midlife Job Hunter - the pro hunting lobby has some arguments they use, but you have to wonder how you are preserving something by killing it. and do they still have a right to take the biggest and best of every species out of the dna chain - and so nobody else can have the joy of observing it alive and well? thanks for visiting!Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16060531713032236270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-63958314180276019302012-07-11T11:58:20.297+02:002012-07-11T11:58:20.297+02:00Amanda - yes we ahve to stay positive and this is ...Amanda - yes we ahve to stay positive and this is a time of great changes; the horror everyone feels at the loss of wild creatures and their habitat will surely spawn a deeper concern and hopefully ensure their survival is this well peopled planet xValhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16060531713032236270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-25295380680011755582012-07-11T11:14:16.609+02:002012-07-11T11:14:16.609+02:00As everybody says, your voice is so important, Val...As everybody says, your voice is so important, Val, and I do hope heard by many. I wish you could rent a satellite and broadcast your messages to the places where the BUYERS live (got to learn Chinese first?). I CANNOT understand why these horns and tusks are considered good for human male erections!! Why does nobody ever TELL these buyers they are the weirdest stupidest men on earth?? Do I sound agitated? I AM!!<br /><br />But I love your little animal stories, Val. that frog, haha, he probably came back home after a long "walk" (no hopping) and now must do it all again.<br />Today in our supermarket there was a little swallow circling and circling inside. I said, open the windows, but they told me they are not to be opened! So I got myself a big waste paper basket and rolled it to the side of the exit door, keeping it open. One woman said, But Lady, you are not SUPPOSED to that! Haha, I said, so what?! I want that swallow to fly out!<br />Why are people so arrrgh, I wonder?Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06484336744673299416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-64719569380882204072012-07-11T01:42:28.146+02:002012-07-11T01:42:28.146+02:00Fascinating reading your account here.

And then there are those who pay the big dollars to hunt their lands. I can't quite grasp their logic.<br /><br />Thoroughly enjoyed visiting you.Midlife Roadtripperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06700277803842883251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-77687864800971659212012-07-09T16:16:27.163+02:002012-07-09T16:16:27.163+02:00it is truly disheartening to hear that naturalist&...it is truly disheartening to hear that naturalist's statement. after all the efforts people are putting into trying to stop poaching it still goes on due to some people's insatiable desire. so many things going on in our world that make you shake your head and wonder why - but the darkest hour is before the dawn. i don't believe the earth and its creatures will put up with abuse forever.Amanda Summerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00942636545948440422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-1578753971414981462012-07-09T11:33:02.662+02:002012-07-09T11:33:02.662+02:00Mermaid Gallery - yes indeed - they are fun to hav...Mermaid Gallery - yes indeed - they are fun to have around and we miss them when they are away foraging elsewhere - but it can get a little hectic in domestic circles sometimes!<br /><br />Joost - thank you for your kind words and support! i do feel we are bombarded with disaster stories and there are some positives, and at least good and dedicated people out there who we never hear about; and they are taking enormous risks daily to try to protect and conserve a wildlife heritage that belongs to the world.

Our two and four legged friends who live around us here are the first ones to make us smile everyday.. the longer you live with them the more they show you their characters. <br /><br />Very good that you pay attention to the many individuals who are committed to protecting the defenseless animals that are often the last of their kind.<br />Most of them probably never be honored or will play a key role in a beautifully written article in a nice glossy magazine. For these heroes slander, threat or a bullet is closer than great fame.<br />You're one of those heroes who repeatedly confronts us with the true facts and so let us become the next ambassadors for these beautiful animals. The animals, were you Val, live around and who every day reveal more of there soul to you. Please never stop sending out your stories (I know you never will )<br /><br />Wish you guys a surprisingly beautiful safari season!<br /><br />Xjoosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02638713136183676410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968469327864068813.post-31286692183881079332012-07-09T07:25:46.637+02:002012-07-09T07:25:46.637+02:00I know the monkeys must be annoying but the fun of...I know the monkeys must be annoying but the fun of it would make up for their mischief!
