Hi, I'm Martin with Newsround on Saturday morning. | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
You may notice we're a bit different today. | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
We're getting a new studio, but while its being built, we're here. | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
The women's rugby team face world number one New Zealand | :00:23. | :00:29. | |
Captain Sarah Hunter spoke to us yesterday. | :00:30. | :00:35. | |
We have to step up and we said that all along through the competition. | :00:36. | :00:43. | |
Right from day one this squad came together. Every time we step onto | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
the field we have to be better than we were. Job one, first and foremost | :00:47. | :00:56. | |
is to play the 80 minutes and the best game we can. Tomorrow is the | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
biggest challenge. We have to bring our biggest game for it. | :01:01. | :01:02. | |
The state of Texas in America has been hit by a huge hurricane. | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
It's expected to be the worst to hit the US mainland in 12 years. | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
Hurricane Harvey's caused heavy flooding with winds of up to 130mph. | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
Thousands of people have had to leave their homes. | :01:12. | :01:13. | |
Next up, there's a big argument happening about whether you should | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
South Africa's home to more rhinos than anywhere else in the world, but | :01:17. | :01:31. | |
they have a huge problem. Poaching is out of control in this country. | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
That's where these amazing animals are killed for their horns. Buying | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
and selling rhino horn between countries has been against the law | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
since 1977. In South Africa, a judge has said it's OK for them to be sold | :01:47. | :01:55. | |
in that country. As of today, I have 1,536 rhinos. This is John. He has a | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
lot of rhinos and thinks he should be able to sell their horns. I | :02:02. | :02:08. | |
firmly believe that this is the way to save rhinos from extinction. On | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
his land, he removes the rhinos' horn safely. This rhino has been | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
sent to sleep safely by a vet. Then the horn is removed. It doesn't hurt | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
the animal because it's done by a professional and it grows back. Some | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
conservationists don't agree this is the best way to protect rhinos. | :02:30. | :02:39. | |
There's no sign that it will curb poaching whatsoever. Both sides will | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
be watching this very closely. If rhino numbers go up, people like | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
John will be happy and more sales like this might go ahead in the | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
future. If rhino numbers keep going down, conservationists will say more | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
needs to be done to protect this species and the rules need to be | :02:55. | :02:55. | |
stricter. | :02:56. | :02:57. |
