I am assuming it was poached for the ivory?
If so, that's a shame.  I can't read South African.

I don't think rhino horns are made of ivory, but rather keratin.

Yeah, basically hair/fingernail.  But some of the Chinese still believe it is like super duper Viagra.

Repulsive.

Must be an incredible letdown...I doubt placebo has much of an effect when then chips are down.  This squirrel shaking his business comes to mind :pee:

Really fricken disgusting, I'm glad they shoot to kill poachers over there.  That is f'n unreal, maybe they did the baby a favor but killing it for no reason! What the hell is wrong with those poachers, like someone said earlier, is there really that much money in it anymore??? 
“In common with”..... not so much!!

I translated the comments from dutch to english but they dont say much. Just highlite the phrase, right click and use translate.  Its sad that they waste such a beautiful animal.

It is a big deal to use them for dagger handles in several Arab countries, Saudi oil money has increased the market
