  Thanks dude. That bush to the right is a rare plant that only grows in a 600 sq miles radius in a known part of Africa. The recon guys are already there and they said they've found the only manufacturer of plastic signs around that area that uses that font as the default one. Now they are "talking" to him about his customers. Once we have certain coordinates, we'll send them to our team of guys with guns on the ground and to the extraction and cargo transport teams. I can already feel the sweet smell of freshly powdered rhino horn :) In the olden days we would have had to track the guy who took the picture and have a lengthy private talk with him, risking to expose ourselves in a "lawful" country, but this makes it so much easier...

  Trying to find the source of that image - Google lists it on a few tumblrs going back to 2010 (tumblr apparently started in 2007, who knew) - except when you go to the oldest of them it's only just been posted, today, not 2010. Google never seem to have been able to do dates reliably.
