This is for all the rhinos that have been slaughtered by poachers throughout the many years for their horns for mans greed for ivory. In a decade , more than 7,137 African rhinos have been lost to poaching. There are worrying signs that poaching gangs are increasingly moving beyond South Africa's borders , gaining a foothold in other African countries - many which have less resources available to protect wildlife. KRUGER NATIONAL PARK is a safe haven from poachers but there is still a lot of work to do. I will not by anything made out of ivory period. If we don't take of our wildlife there won't be any for us or our children.

Great Work!
It's horrible how animals are treated.

Thank you.

Cool!

Thank you.

very nice. Sadly as long as there is demand for ivory, poachers will find a way to kill these magnificent creatures

Thank you.

I'm a huge fan of the Rhino. I like your drawing!

Thank you.

Great work, Juan! I heard that the Chinese government plans to outlaw ivory. This should really decrease demand. Hopefully it's not too late!

I hope not. Thanks my friend.

I like B&W art :)
