Description
Sometimes a young black rhino needs a helping hand.
The young rhino was one of a group removed from an area where the poaching threat has escalated greatly. It later developed eye cataracts and will soon have them removed by a special veterinary ophthalmology team. Black rhino can become tame within a few days of capture if treated correctly, and love a good tickle or scratch.
