There was a time that we thought Zimbabwe was nice. That was during the 2008 Olympics when we found out they were pretty good swimmers. But like the Olympics, that time is over, and our love for the country with the funny name is extinguished.
The black rhino is almost extinct. We’re getting there, we really are. The media calls them poachers (but you know the saying, one man’s poacher is another man’s freedom fighter), and they are set on ending the black rhino threat. Yet Zimbabwe stubbornly refuses to allow our boys to finish the job. In fact, they are actually post armed guards around some of the rhinos.
Yes, you read that correctly, the rhinos have better security than arguably an Sub-Saharan politican.
