100% cotton on the label, but 99% on the tag. Wouldn’t have bought them if I’d known.

@ElonMuskAOC South Africa. Government totally for sale. Lots of potential.

Big news from the world of #rhino conservation: African Parks buys John Hume’s Platinum Rhino Ranch inclusive of 2000 rhinos with the objective of rewilding the rhinos across strategic and safe locations in Africa https://t.co/PIHxc3JYfT

@AHuebschle Good outcome.

The Multi-Party Charter negotiating a new way forward for a government to rescue SA next year has, under the guidance of independent Chairperson Professor William Gumede, agreed on our shared vision, priorities and principles. #NationalConvention2024

[John Steenhuisen MP @jsteenhuisen]

Our mission is to unseat the ANC, keep out the EFF, and usher in a multi-party government following the 2024 National and Provincial Elections. #Charter24

@jsteenhuisen A really important initiative formSouth Africa.

[John Steenhuisen MP @jsteenhuisen]

The next two days are not about politics or politicians. They are about the people of South Africa. Our mission at this National Convention is to provide concrete solutions to improve the lives of the South African people. #NationalConvention2024

"If the number of rhinos is the main measurement of success, then it would be hard to argue with Hume’s model." Except that, as well written article explains, the model didn't work. - https://t.co/Z4kZlsqP7w - Will any model work without trade? #WildlifeEconomy

[Simon Clements @SimonRehabitat]

@FrancisVorhies The logical answer is to lift the trade ban. Rhino horn is a truly renewable resource, whose dollar value could benefit not just rhino conservation, but critically, habitat expansion and thus African conservation as a whole.

@ulrik_gh Range and Habitat.

[Simon Clements @SimonRehabitat]

@FrancisVorhies Legalising the horn trade would be the most sensible option. CITES not likely to budge.

[Simon Clements @SimonRehabitat]

@tSasRolfes @nickhedley Must be one of the most renewable (and valuable ) resources available to conservation. The ban is an almost cynical device designed to preserve the CITES status quo.

[Simon Clements @SimonRehabitat]

@tSasRolfes @nickhedley While the CITES ostriches remain firmly committed to a failed horn trade ban, the writing is on the wall. Failure is certain.

[Simon Clements @SimonRehabitat]

@ElonMuskAOC Return?

"The only way to curb rhino poaching is to legalise the trade in rhino horn", says Pelham Jones, chairperson for the Private Rhino Owners’ Association https://t.co/qXe9aw6yGI

[Simon Clements @SimonRehabitat]

@tveitdal In whichever manner we can.
