An armed rhino poacher in South Africa’s Kruger National Park was trampled to death when a herd of elephants charged as he lined up a shot for the animals’ lucrative horns
Some good news today, thank you.
Why isn’t it more socially acceptable to discuss why, or more specifically who is causing these horns to be so valuable?
It’s not? Depends on what social group you mean here I guess.
I love a happy ending to a story
Nature is healing.
yeah. but no, we’re currently in a sixth mass extinction, no matter how many orca attack boats or elephants trample poachers, nature is losing and losing fast.
“Now the hunter… Has become hun- dead. Oh, that’s definitely dead…”
ETA:
A Kruger National Park source said: “The two ran in different directions but the one lining up the shot was the slowest to his feet and the elephants went for him first. He was quickly over run and the elephants trampled him into the earth and all that we found was basically a very large blood stain around the clothing he was in.
Rapid-fire comments:
- That’s the most Looney Toons death ever
- I guess the elephants herd some danger
- Imagine making such fucked choices that your family could collect your remains in rags and buckets
amazing. you’re great
Good. Deserved. Nice to see elephants looking out for their tank bros.
Oh no!
Anyway
Fortunately nothing of value was lost.
Love this so much! One fucker less.
Good
