Black Rhino


Killed like vermin, by European hunters were we,
five or six killed in a day for food or simple glee.
Our decline in population at the hand of European settlers,
With guns they would choose to kill and to so better us.
A further cost of 20th century colonization of Africa,
 Establishing farms and plantations, continuing a senseless slaughter.
. We are regarded as pests and exterminated at all cost,
“DOOMED.” was the headline in 1961, due to the numbers of our loss.
 A result of man's folly, greed and whole neglect,
So now please support conservation as your charity of select.  
Help in the fighting to protect me, and my kind,
For soon there wont be any, of us left around to find.
