Allow me to take you back in time, to November 2014.

We have given an awful exhibition of slaughter and destruction, which may serve as a warning to all mankind. Of course, by now most people know they have been slaughtered by hunters for their ivory. This is a very disturbing video of Sandhill Cranes being slaughtered by “hunters.”
