African Rhino permit sold

A African black rhino hunting permit was sold at a auction at a Dallas convention center. The killing of Black Rhinos is normally illegal because this is a endangered species but this is one of five allowed hunts in Namibia this year. The Black Rhino hunting permit was sold for $ 350,000 to help the Namibia trust fund for Black Rhinos but will it really help this spiecies survive or will it just help depleat the population?

    Yeah that seems like a fair deal If they can't reproduce or do much to help the Environment what are they here for? These animals can live up to 35 to 40 years and they can survive without water for five days. There are plenty of these animals left because they have a law which you can't kill them. I think that These animals should be kept safe if they can breed and help increase the population. What do you think?
