predicting that up to one million #animal and #plant species could soon be extinct.
Some #forests are already deemed โemptyโ in the wake of rampant #hunting and #poaching.
This problem goes beyond China and the current coronavirus pandemic and is driving the extinction of species in many countries, so we are calling for the worldwide closure of wildlife markets.
Please sign and share our petition and speak out against these barbaric markets.

Shut down wildlife markets NOW!
With their brisk trade in endangered and poached animals, wildlife markets in many countries are driving the extinction of species. The markets are also breeding grounds for diseases that can also be deadly to humans.www.rainforest-rescue.org

Any idea what this spiky plant is?
Fruit has thin tough skin, spongey/crisp flesh (like a lillypilly), lots of seeds, no distinctive smell (just vegetative).
No idea of taste, since Iโm not eating random red fruit found on a bush that given the spikes, is clearly designed not to be eaten.
