In South Africa a rhino is brutally killed every 22 hours. The time for action is now!
Africa Geographic’s petition to the Vietnamese* Ambassador to South Africa demands that the illegal trade in - and killing of - rhinos is stopped. The Vietnamese use rhino horn in traditional medicine and the aim of our petition is to destroy the market for the horn and, with it, the incentive to poach.
