Horns of Dilemma
The rhinos of the world are vanishing, and all because the horns that they carry on their noses can fetch twice their weight in gold.
A web of illicit trade links the poachers of Africa to the souks of the Yemen and the medicine shops of Hong Kong. But does the object of that trade have any real value, or are the five kinds of rhinoceros being needlessly destroyed? Their plight is charted from the African savannahs to Java and the foothills of the Himalayas.
Although most rhinos are in danger of extinction, it is a journey full of surprises. Narrator John Hedges Filmed and produced by WOLFGANG BAYER Associate producer
