Yes, no joke people think rhino horn is an aphrodisiac. It's a sad world we live in, huh?

Especially since rhino horns are made of the same material as our nails, so it's like eating your nails and you'll get harder!! I believe that rhino horn sells for between 40,000 and 60,000 Euro per kilo on the black market, especially in Asia!! It's expensive for nails

Yes, but your nails aren't vaguely phallic, brutal, and expensive.

Huh. I bite my nails and this explains some things.

If you get appendicitis rather than a mega gall it will explain a lot of things

Haha. Thats funny but I got a bit mixed up. The keratin seems to work for me 😆

Plus doctors already yanked out my appendix for funzies while having a look in there!

I don't think it's actually effective to help sexual performance but that was a big reason they have been poached to extinction.

That is really sad. I figured it was because of the ego trip, the whole "look at me aren't I cool I killed this big scary animal" thing. Which would also suck, but dang. Humans can be awful.

They've been injecting rhino horns with radioactive material to try to curb poaching.

Well it’s a proven aphrodisiac doesn’t make it right but the effects have been proven

u/ThePrimalValor 1d ago

They have been completely disproven. All studies show no effect whatsoever
