Africa looks to be making a beeline for desolation with respect to its wildlife.

Seems to be the way of the human race to consume until there is nothing left.

All wild animals will be extinct in 50 to 70 years.

There are examples right here in the good old U S of A. The passenger pigeon has been hunted to extinction and the bison, that once roamed the plains in thundering herds numbering in the tens of thousands were hunted almost to extinction, not for food or any other necessity, but for just plain sport. So called "hunting guides" used to take weekend warriors across the great plains on the early railroads to kill bison from the moving train and leave them where they fell to rot. Some great sport, wasn't it.
