Very, very interesting. Glad the spider swallowing was not true! As for man being responsible for the extinction of all these animals, I am not at all surprised. Stiffer laws and hunting permits should be very expensive and those from other countries who have the mentality of thinking that Rhino husks, bear paws, elephant tusks are some kind of magic for upping their sex drive just makes me boil. Of course same countries kill many animals for food including dogs. Sick, sick, sick. Anyway I think your facts and stories are the best.

Mosquitoes are responsible for more human deaths than wars… why have we not arranged for mosquitoes to be extinct?!? I’m sure if there were money involved and not mostly third world countries there would be a solution for this problem.

Oscar Foot Mann, Yes but humans are the only animals which cause extinction of other animals. Yes we are just animals and we use our large brain to destroy others. How ignorant and egotistical are we!
