    BTW- in having a little fun with the whole neanderthal thing, I found that the references to neanderthal by the guy who went all preachy and ranty about this wasn't just him, but there is this whole weird racist thing about people of European descent being subhuman because of the neanderthal DNA. Well, to those who want to share the hate, I guess, on that basis I say, keep it coming...I find it somewhere between amusing and hilarious!

    It was definitely an intentional racist slam on the woman. I predict it will result in less than the desired result when she either ignores it or laughs about it because it's so incredibly stupid.

    It's amusing that the people who think racism -- or more accurately, what they perceive to be racism -- is the ultimate sin of which mankind is capable are using "neanderthal" as a racist slur as if it's going to have some kind of effect on anyone. They're trying to hurt people with their words because they choose to be hurt by words and assume their targets are just as weak and prone to being victims by choice. Projectors gotta project, I suppose.

    I too am now hungry for a giraffe burger.

    I understand why some liberals are upset at the way this hunter just shot this giraffe. Despite the fact that the meat was used, it seems like an unfair advantage for the hunter. To make it more sporting, she should use a coat hanger next time.

    Oh, we see what you did there. We certainly do. :yesway:

    IIRC shark meat contains urea to assist in maintaining flotation since they have no air bladder so yeah it probably does suck.

    My dad told me several times that his father (i.e. my grandfather), liked to catch sharks and eat them. Kind of like "Jaws," but in reverse.

    My Milt Sparks has shark skin, are we still allowed to kill apex predators for sport? Shark meat SUCKS!!!!

    IIRC shark meat contains urea to assist in maintaining flotation since they have no air bladder so yeah it probably does suck.

    Depends on the type of shark and it if was handled properly. Blackfin and Spinner sharks are very good provided they are bled immediately upon being landed, then gutted and iced down immediately. Makos are even better.

    QFT

    I immediately thought that this was an attempt to come up with a racial slur that would actually offend the people it is used against.

    Swing and a miss.

    By posting this I'm not saying the person who took the giraffe desrves this. No, but poachers do...

    The shame of this situation is that rhino could easily be farmed for their horns as the horns can be safely removed from the rhino without harm, if the anti hunters and the corrupt officials that profit from the black market weren't so opposed to opening up legal trade. That would not only provide landowners more incentive to raise rhinos, it would also provide less incentive for poachers to risk their lives doing irreparable damage to the resource.

    They are killing rhinos in zoos now to steal the horns.
    They did that at a Parisian zoo last year.
    They came at night, shot the rhino and cut the horn with a chainsaw.
    Some zoos are now cutting the horns of their rhinos to keep them from getting hunted/killed.

    A rhinoceros at a zoo near Paris was shot three times in the head on Monday night by poachers who then cut off its horn with a chainsaw. The four-year-old rhinoceros, named Vince, was found dead by keepers at Thoiry Zoo, to the west of the French capital

    There is no need to farm rhinos for their horns.They are only used to make boner pills in Asia.No other use.
    If people would stop buying them there poachers would stop killing rhinos.

    I think you underestimate the demand for Boner pills in the eastern markets, nay all markets...

    The asian culture runs deep with medicinals made from various parts of exotic and probably not so exotic animals. I doubt that culture can ever be rid of that method until the resource is completely depleted.

    Editors note: Every time I quote a post the picture of Paige Wyatt is included in my remark so I decided why fight it this time?

    Yeah I know.But why do they still need rhino horns when they have access to Viagra now.
    Plus from what I have read their rhino-based boner pills don't work anyway.
