I didn't watch this segment because I knew it would break my heart as I love and appreciate wildlife particularly the more majestic types such as African Lions or Indian Tigers.

It might be interesting to note that both the former Rhodesia and the former South Africa had by far the best conservation programs of any of the countries on the continent. The great beasts of Africa were flourishing in both countries and were to a very great degree protected from poachers. As least they were protected as best as they could be in such a vast area.

The conservation programs of both countries are destroyed by the change in governments. It was predictable. So all the World Wildlife Funds and other organizations run by good liberals who supported the changes this is what you get.

Yes
Some of the very worst environmental destruction of all time is found in the former Soviet Union.

Leftists hate capitalism, but they can not point to any statist regimes that do a better job for the environment.
