Give Us A Chance

Yesterday was International Rhino Day and in South Africa we had a Stop Rhino Poaching Day. This is our heritage and it is frighting to see the rate at which Rhino's are killed for their horns. The sad part is that the young ones are also injured so badly that they too die. I have spent many hours on horseback in the wild taking photographs of Rhino and this is a matter very close to my heart. Sadly many of the regular Rhino I used to visit, has been killed.

Comment by Corine Ross on September 23, 2011 at 4:32am: Thank you so much John, I can not tell you how many times I have cried hearing that another Rhino I used to watch from horseback had been killed. Photo opportunity close to home is running out fast now. I do hope that this little one will have the opportunity to grow up.
