Many articles explains that per gram, rhino's horn are valued more than gold. This trade increases rhino poaching.

And here is the kind of tweet people would do genuinely sharing amazing scenes of their holidays without realizing they might help poachers track & kill the animal the day after!

It should be relatively easy to report such tweet to Twitter or ask the author himself to remove it as soon as possible.
