Wow, really?
Looks like someone should update their trolling tactics to get with the times.
The picture shows a female rhino in Tugela Private Game Reserve, Colenso, Natal, South Africa, November 9, 2010, that four months earlier survived a brutal dehorning by poachers who used a chainsaw to remove her horns and a large section of bone in that area of her skull. The female rhino survived the dehorning and has joined up with a male bull who now accompanies her. Rhino horn is now worth more than gold on the international market. South Africa alone has lost more than 400 rhino to illegal poaching incidents in 2011. The demand for Rhino horn is fueled by a wealthy Asian middle and upper class and used overwhelmingly as medication.

So let's move our fiat currency to a rhino horn standard. Makes as much sense as anything else. At least rhino horn is a renewable resource...

Also the rhino that was de-horned had a calf but it was killed after the attack 
the Rhino is probably going to die out in the wild soon and i think that is such a shame

Supply/Demand
If people wish to use that as a currency, that up to them. It's not as durable or portable like gold but individuals have the right to use whatever currency they wish to use.

The easiest way to allow rhino horn trade is to allow for the private ownership of the animal and stop government form managing them. It has worked for the American Bison as well as several African species whose numbers on private ranches in Texas outnumber those in the wilds of Africa
