America sucks.. Hell, all of humanity sucks for the most part.. Most of us are like what you guys are describing countries as.. We need to be like we were before, and restore the balance to the ecosystem. We lived a good long while as Native Americans and other such civilizations.

I agree with eva. The U.S. (and Europe and Canada) started it, but one has to admit that China is taking it to a new level. When you take into account the exponential possibilities of destruction due to the incredible scale of their population, it becomes scary. And the fact that they are blatantly ignoring the lessons learned from our own arrogant, ignorant and avaricious history leaves them open to judgement. So Charles; don’t worry about seeming not PC. If we and everything else on this planet are going to survive, this sort of thing must be addressed in public forums. It’s not racist. It’s imperative.

The Chinese are going to eat the entire planet. In addition to being pointlessly xenophobic, they are environmentally barbaric. Tigers will be poached into extinction because some ignorant Chinese hillbillies think that eating tiger penis makes them virile. The same with bear gall bladder. There’s already near 1.5 billion Chinese on the planet, I don’t think erectile dysfunction is the problem. The problem is ignorance and selfishness.
Then there are the Sharks. They’re being tortured and wiped out for soup. Sick. And now sea turtles. God only know what other twisted notions they have that result in genocide. Does this sound racist? Probably, but that doesn’t make it any less true. Sometimes it’s incumbent upon a culture to re-evaluate some of it’s traditions clean out the stupid.

Um, yes… USA. After all, China’s vile greed is only serving the grotesque demand of America. When the western world stops wanting things they don’t need, China will have no market.

So sad… these are such beautiful turtles. I’m on the East Coast of the USA right now and they have them at the local aquarium where they also have a rehab center and education program. Had no idea that plastic grocery bags are harmful to them! They swallow them thinking they are jelly fish supposedly… their tummies feel full and they starve.

Thanks for bringing the poaching plight to our attention. I’ve also lived in the Philippines and … so sad how the environment is exploited.

At http://www.Nikela.org we try to do our small part to protect wildlife.
