Produktbeschreibung

In 2010, the last Javan Rhino in Vietnam was poached for its horn, leading to the tragic extinction of this subspecies. Today, only a small population of Javan Rhinos remains in Ujung Kulon National Park in Java, Indonesia.Despite having no scientifically proven medical properties, rhino horns are falsely promoted as cures for various ailments, including cancer, in traditional medicine. This misinformation fuels high demand for rhino horns in Vietnam, as well as other illegal wildlife products like pangolin scales and tiger bones.In addition to poaching, habitat loss due to agricultural expansion also contributes to the decline of this species. This story is told from the perspective of Vietnam's last Javan Rhino, revealing the dangers it faced and its struggle against the merciless poachers.

Autorenporträt

Eat your greens.Or write about them, if you prefer.As far as her indecisiveness goes, this hobby writer likes to do both. She can often be found sneaking as many nature references as possible into her works, and it's no surprise that her favorite color is also green.Most of her creations gather digital dust in her Notes app, with one notable exception: a poem written in Vietnamese that was published in her high school magazine. The theme? You guessed it - nature!(How boring.)Why does she do this, you might ask?Sure, nature is an endless source of inspiration and information. But honestly, the girl's just saddened by the dwindling greenery outside her window. That's why she aims to write more about it, so people will pay more attention to our natural world.#GreenJuistice
