This is very educative. I have had a similar experience when I visited Okomu National Park, somewhere in Nigeria 5 years ago. They explained about how they have some endangered species of animals in the park. They made emphasis on monkeys and butterflies.
It is so sad that we fail to see the cost of endangering living species. In this modern generation, we only have stories told about some certain animals which some persons assume to be myth while some believe due to fossil record but it would have been much more preferable if such animals had not gone into extinction.
Such include the dinosaurs, the dragon, just to mention a few. So sad we will never get to see them again.
Thanks for your post, it is actually the most educating post I have read today.
Thank you. I sincerely appreciate your comment. :)
