I really wanted to bid on one of these auctions, I’ve got just the person to send it to as a Christmas present. Sadly the auctions are only open to US residents, but the International Rhino Foundation are auctioning off four separate hunks of rhino dung on eBay.
What could be a more suitable gift for that (ahem) special person in your life? You have to buy them a present out of politeness but really want your opinion of them to shine through. Well a big lump of Rhino Poo should get your message across!
There is a serious side to the auctions, Rhinos are an endangered species and the auctions aim to raise awareness that these lovable creatures could disappear forever. There should have been five auctions, but the Javan Rhino is already so rare that a sample of poo couldn’t be found. 🙁
If you want to know more about Rhino conservation work head over to the International Rhino Foundation website

I have heard that there really is some crap on eBay these days….
(watch out for that tumbleweed!)
Alternatively if you want to support a UK-based rhino charity, here you go.
Damn, someone beat me to the obvious “Crap on eBay” joke.
….. I’ll get me coat. 🙂
