The bigger problem is what is happening to land these animals (and other species) live on. Unless there is a political and economic answer someday many other species will only exist in sperm samples.

Corporate funded use of this newly renovated (using tax dollars) public space is now a selling platform for anyone with enough cash. Was this the right place for a sculpture about saving the last 3 white rhinos? Is the EV the home of the kind of people with the political or financial resources or at very least celebrity fame to make a difference? <br /><br />This sadly was a lost cause considering the advanced age and health of the last male rhino. That is why so many of us believe this sculpture is nothing more than an attempt for the artists to bring attention to themselves by taking on a sympathetic yet futile cause.
