When tourists come to visit your country, they may have saved up the money to do this for many years of their lives. I understand tourists appear rich to you but they are just ordinary people who want to travel and experience new people and see sites that they could not see at home.
As I said the cost of doing this is very very high and people have to plan and save to do it.
One of the things tourists like to see are the big 5 African animals - Lion, Rhino, Elephant, Leopard, Buffalo - in the wild (remember they can see them at home in Zoos).
If there are no more Rhino to see in the wild - then the tourists will think that your country, as the custodians of these animals, has filed to behave responsibly. The fact that you allow Rhino poaching makes us angry!
As a result of this (and because there will be no Rhino left to see in the wild) they will probably decide not to come to your country and go to places where people do look after their natural resources.
Rhino poaching is bad for tourism in South Africa as tourists are prepared to pay for the chance to see a rhino in person. If the rhino becomes extinct in South Africa then the country may become less attractive to tourists.
rhino poaching is illegal because the rhino is becoming an endangered species to the world
rhino poaching is when they poach rhinos by cutting off their horn, wich is really cruel
EVERYWHERE!! you are so stupid!

Shoot the poachers on sight. Place guards on all the Rhino. Persuade the Chinese to stop purchasing Rhino horn. Remove the horns of all Rhino.
Well the short answer is there is less rhinos.

Poaching for their horn, which is used in quack Chinese medicines. and also for rufus which is another part of the rhino.
Ivory sales and rhino poaching in Africa are interconnected through the illegal wildlife trade, where the demand for ivory often drives poaching of multiple species, including rhinos. Although rhinos are primarily targeted for their horns, the poaching networks often overlap, as both ivory and rhino horn are highly valued in black markets. The profits from ivory sales can fund further poaching activities, exacerbating the decline of both elephant and rhino populations. Efforts to combat these issues often focus on reducing demand for ivory to protect all endangered species involved in the trade.
