The scourge of the skin poachers: Hideous sight of a butchered elephant exposes the sick trade in animals' hides to feed soaring demand in China

We have to stop this NOW, all countries have a duty to warn China that this slaughter will not be tolerated and they MUST bad all elephant products immediately!!!!

Don't they they think about what they will do when elephants become extinct?! The way they are going, it will be sooner rather than later. Please just leave these amazing and defenceless animals alone.

I hate scrolling down the page and seeing this. Please blur it and if somebody wants to view it put up a graphic warning notice. i went straight to comments to post this i did not want to see that, now i feel sick and disgusted.This is so sad!!!

Sanctions on China and Burma should be the order of they day until they stop this barbarism

And yet they are doing everything they can to protect their own endangered species, namely the Panda.

Poor elephants. I hope their poachers and customers suffer the same fate someday. I also hope those elephant body parts bring them extreme bad luck.

Folks, we could kill two birds (figure of speech only) with one stone here. Allow the deranged BiG game (cowards) hunters be allowed and encouraged to hunt the poachers (cowards). Charge big fees so the murderers can murder the murderers

Here is a thought, eradicate China! It would solve a lot of the worlds problems.

Yet again more animal cruelty. There are so many ignorant and cruel people in this world.

Do these people have any regard for anything in this world?

This is mental. Who in their sane minds would purchase this jewellery?

China has become one very sad country with a bunch of sicko's living in it.

Eat yourselves!

whats next on the menu when all of the elephants are extinct? how about kim jong un

Human race is full of stupid people that are destroying the very world in which we live and need to survive ourselves. Come on China ban this trade and put evidence out there to show these stupid ideas about animal parts are untrue

China is the world leader in demand for these superstitious nonsense "medicines" that result in the endangerment and extinction of all sorts of wild life. When will they stop this crap?

What is wrong with these Chinese idiots they have to kill everything for their hocus pocus rituals.

if china end up making the elephant extinct what are they going to do with their need for supposid medicins then

Some people are vile beyond belief, they don't deserve the gift of life if they do this to other creatures.

"The greatness of a nation can be judged by the way its animals are treated." The abuse, disrespect toward elephants and other animals does NOT fall within these words. Shameful!
