[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 1511831, member: 26077"] I understand some folks want to shoot Rhino and right now is probably the cheapest you will ever get one. Now that the Legal sale of legally harvested Rhino Horn has been stopped there are literally tens of thousands of surplus Rhinos. There were a great many raised free ranging for years to allow the harvest and sale of their horns by tranquilizer and then release to regrow the horn. Now that this is stopped the only viable use for them is as Trophies and meat. I think this is really too bad. I like seeing Rhino while hunting. Personally I have never had a desire to shoot one. They are near sighted, easy to approach and because many have lived 15 years or more and have never been hunted they are not much afraid of people. Most Rhinos I have seen don't get testy till you get within tranquilizer range of one. I like hunting plains game, it is a real challenge but to each his own. I would never say someone else shouldn't shoot Rhino, Elephant etc. Thanks for the kind words on the pictures. [/QUOTE]
