    China has ended a 25-year ban on rhinoceros horns and tiger bones in medicine. Environmentalists worry that will lead to more poaching and higher risks of extinction.https://nyti.ms/2Q4OhPq

        How can such a cultured Chinese society think that killing rhinos, or any species for that matter for their horns, can benefit their health. Wake up, this is the 21 c. The Chinese government condemns religions for being superstitious, but commits such despicable acts.

        The dog killing festival is another example of an out of touch society. I’m hopeful that the young people of China will help to stop these atrocities.

        If the Chinese government sends people to rehabilitation camps for religious beliefs, why expect them to stop the dog killing Festival. I think we should look at the whole picture. People are just as important as animals.

        It's interesting that they spend so much time and effort to save the #Panda but yet piss on all other creatures.

        This will certainly encourage poaching and illegal trade in animals remains.The animals, usually required by witch doctors or traditional medicine men who claim miraculous cures that are unsubstantiated by medical science, are already on endangered list. Alarming action by China.

        Too bad we can’t boycott stuff made in China as a response to this...very hard to do. This is a disaster for wildlife..why would they do this?

        Speed up extinction of elephants, tigers and rhinos. Bring back asbestos and coal. Make it harder to deal with student debt. Suppress votes. As I tell millennials, the world you have to live in is being degraded by people who are short-sighted or on their way out. Vote!
