Even if we've never been anywhere near their habitats, we can appreciate the majesty of wild and exotic animals such as elephants, gorillas, and tigers.
And while it's sad that many of the animals that fascinate and inspire us are endangered, that also makes us take how precious they are more seriously. Naturally, this means that most of us have no patience for wildlife poachers and any time they fail to to rob the world of another majestic animal, it's a cause for celebration.
Of course, that's not always how it works so if we can't prevent them from harming vulnerable animal populations, we can at least take solace in times when they're brought to justice.
And that's what makes the recent arrest of a particularly notorious poacher so significant to us.
