Description

I've been so tempted to do a butterfly upload like everybody else, so this is my first attempt at a butt-erfly shot but I think something is wrong here. LOL Kidding aside, I hope you enjoy the unconventional view of these Rhino ladies. Now ain't these two perfect behinds... The lady on the left boasts the longest horn in southern Africa and she is so vulnerable to poachers killing her in cold blood, hacking off the horn for a mere $10 to satisfy the Eastern market for aphrodisiacs.
She has a special place in my heart. Some time ago when her calf was still suckling, I had the privilege of her coming right up to me where I was laying underneath the game ranger's van, so close that I could not focus on her face. She was just investigating to make sure I was not posing a threat to her calf. She is still in the wild, alive and well and I hope you enjoy her backside with me.
Thank you for comments and favorites on my previous upload:

Great idea and shot, just think when you have gone through all the animals you can start on birds, you could do a Blues Brothers song and dance with the pictures. Shake a Tail Feather.

All ladies everywhere KNOW they have a "best side" and obviously you've hit the BUTT-y mark (beauty mark??) here. LOL. Terrific idea, history and sense of humor. grin

Thank you for the chuckle. What a lovely and unusual view! I hope that they live long long lives. I tend to agree that the animals sense in you a kind person. Well done!
