    All we have to do is convince “alternative medicine” practitioners that rat tails from NZ cure baldness and make your dick grow. They’ll be as extinct as the white rhino in less than a decade.

      Nice theory, but when populations start to run low I guarantee these fuckers will just reintroduce them. We’re not talking about people with a lot of scruples here.
