Cheeto Shaped Like Dead Gorilla Sells for $100K—Meanwhile 50 Humans Are Killed Over Rhinos

May 28, 2016, is a day that will go down in history.

It was the day that a 3-year-old boy climbed into Harambe’s cage at the Cincinnati Zoo, thus resulting in the fatal shooting of what has become the world’s most famous gorilla.

It was also the day that America officially LOST. Its. MIND.

The nation mourned the loss of the animal they never knew existed just a day prior.

Elaborate shrines were built.

Taylor Swift murals were vandalized in Melbourne, Australia, in the name of our black furry friend.

And yes, nine months after his death, a hot Cheeto resembling the shape of Harambe sold on eBay for exactly $99,900.

According to a report by CNBC, “The listing attracted 132 bids before closing at 3:45 a.m. on Feb. 7. The item was sold from Burbank, California, and even came with free standard shipping.”

I wish I was joking. 

$100K. Half the price of a tricked out Lamborghini. Nine months after its death, this is how greatly we still value a gorilla.

The parents of the young boy were relentlessly shamed by online attackers who said the boy should have been left to die in place of this poor, helpless gorilla. They probably still struggle to walk out in public for fear of getting stoned.

And this, my friends, is the state of a Christian nation that values the sanctity of human life?

Now, there’s just something I have to get off my chest…

Just the other day, I happened across this article titled “To Protect Rhinos, This National Park Just Shoots People (50 Poachers Killed So Far).”

What the WHAAA??!

The words practically leapt off the page and slapped me in the face. All of this hype about a dead gorilla almost a year later, while this gets approximately zero coverage.

WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THIS??

(And before I start my rant, please allow me to note the irony that I first saw this on Bored Panda, a site whose trademark name indicates that this is the silly crap you look at when you’re bored and have nothing better to do.)

Apparently Kaziranga National Park has a world-class reputation for two things: conserving rhinos and killing people.

One hundred years ago, there were only a few Indian one-horned rhinoceroses. But now, thanks to park guards being encouraged to shoot poachers after the rhino horns that are more pricey than gold, there are over 2,400 in the park.
