Hi everyone,
My wife listens a lot to an NPR (I know, I know ) program called RadioLab. For those that haven't listened to it before, it tends to use a pretty unique/kind of annoying way of presenting it's stories, which can take some getting used to. All the same, the wife heard a story on the gentleman who won the auction to hunt a black rhino in Africa in the last year or two, and shared it with me.
It was published in September, 2015, so it's not exactly new, but I figured I'd share it all the same as it approaches the idea of hunting as conservation with a lot of skepticism, but by the end of the segment, the hosts have mostly gotten onboard. If you have some family/friends that don't understand how hunting and conservation are related, it might be worth sharing; I know my wife's appreciation for their relationship increased greatly since listening to it.
Who knows, but here's a link to those who may be interested:
