Just like I am for chickens (I prefer not to eat cows because they have more emotional evolutionary processes). I'd be sad back then too if all they killed such a massive wondrous creature for, was its ivory tusks. I know the people probably salvaged as much as they could, but in the end, that animal probably went down solely because some man thought it would make a good fashion statement. Just cuz ivory carvings survived doesn''t mean I'm happy they exist in the first place. I think humans should respect other animals on this planet with reverence.
Eh, screw em. In the game of evolution, we won. Lets take some DNA samples so we can recreate species in the future and wipe the ones we don't need/want off the planet.
