        Poor Eric. I wonder how long he'll last in the wild. :( Africa as a whole doesn't seem to do a good job in maintaining their endangered animals.

        I am sad to dread that the follow up to this story is how poachers killed him within a week of him being released. I hope I am wrong. But I'm feeling bereft of hope lately.
