Seizing Smuggled Rhino Horns

Customs in Hong Kong has seized a huge load rhino horns, which two men tried to smuggle from Africa, through Hong Kong to Vietnam.

The rhino is an endangered species. This is mostly due to supersticion in Asia, where they believe the horns from rhinos have powers which no scientist would recognise. I hate superstition that makes humans do stupid things, like making animals endangered. It is a great thing, then, that these rhino horns were seized.
