@algancao – On Endangered Species and Woo-Woo Medicine

@vichzp Chinese medicine doesn’t cause rhino and tiger extinction, but greed and poachers do. Same with elephants, bears, etc. Sun Jul 05 14:30:23
@amyalkon Chinese medicine Injectable herbs are used in Chinese ERs. CM there and woo woo here are not the same. http://bit.ly/10llP4
@robertsongames2 Rhino horn not for impotence in TCM. Lowers fever. Poaching is GREED & MONEY not health. TCM uses water buffalo horn now.
Others point out that poachers are nothing without a marketplace. Agreed. [Sigh] My sphere of influence limited. No magic wand to wave to stop this.
