This is pointless virtue signaling.
Rhinos are not included in an Ivory ban, because they do not produce ivory.
True story: while on a long drive from Nairobi to Amboselli and Tsavo I had a chance to have a good talk with our driver/guide...a great guy named James. Not only did he have many very unflattering things to say about Somalis,he told me that the Kenyan government's official policy on poachers was "shoot to kill". No efforts to capture...or drive off. Just bang,bang!
