Maybe it's just me getting older and more melancholy or emotional but I think that after decades of watching 'Man's inhumanity to Man', for the last 20 years or so I've been waatching 'Man's Cruelty to Animals, in this particular case, The Elephant. This docu in which Actor-Conservationist Leonardo Di Caprio has a hand, along with many authorities from Africa, Hong Cong, USA, China including Andrea Crosta, Richard Leakey, Ian Stevenson and from the UK, Prince William, Duke of Cambridge. Elephants butchered in their hundreds by poachers who want the almost priceless tusks which are eventually sold onto the Chinese Illegal Markets and turned into various trinkets and items, many for tourists and the really pricey ones sold to collectors. It will be a 'Kleenex' job watching this for most. "The" Mr Big, a guy named Boniface Mariango aka Shetani is the prize that these braver - than - brave soldiers, animal protectors, conservationists all want to capture. I won't spoil it with the result. Personally, I would prefer that ALL the people in authority who take bribes leading down to the actual poachers who cause and oversee this destruction of ALL and ANY animals to gain a few hundred dollars but often much less, were introduced to one of the cartridges of the AK47's they use and THEIR carcasses left on the savannah.
