Technically, we don't suck as a species, we're just supremely overpowered lol
It's very, very hard to get everyone to adopt and play by the rules to protect these species when said rules are generally very expensive for people already struggling for money and/or mean you won't have enough farmland. It might be easy for someone like me sitting comfortably in Florida to be outraged that someone shot a rhino for its horn, but for someone who is absolutely poverty stricken and knows said horn could fetch as much as a decade's income in one go... I don't think it requires a lot of rationalizing, especially when you're hungry.
We're not a "bad" species in my opinion, just one that's driven to such actions by the laws of nature itself. Hopefully we can help protect as many of these other species as possible until we transition into a world of unlimited energy that could see living standards globally rising to something akin to the west, which is probably still a long way off. :
