Elle Macpherson in trouble for eating rhino horn

Watches this video enjoy Elle Macpherson in trouble for eating rhino horn

We knew supermodels often resorted to weird and wonderful treatments to keep themselves looking in tip top condition, but we bet Elle Macpherson's wishing she never revealed her secret. In a recent interview, the leggy star admitted she indulged in a spot of Chinese medicine, namely powdered rhino horn. "It tastes a little bit like crushed bone and fungus in a capsule," she told Times Online. "Does the job though, it works for me." Now animal rights groups are slamming the model for her choices, pointing out that rhinos are an endangered species because of horn poaching. "Poachers usually shoot or tranquilize the animal before sawing off its horn. Rhinos often die from bleeding to death," they explain. Surely a few vitamins would do the same job, Elle?
