on World Rhino Day: Walking in the Footsteps of Giants

Lovely informative blog Amy. We’ve got to do everythimg we can to raise awereness for the plight our rhinos are in. A salute to all the antipoaching units and rangers protecting these precious animals.

A beautiful article Amy and some amazing photo’s. Yes we have to do everything we can to protect them. What is of concern is that as we make progress in areas like Kruger or here in Zululand, the poachers simply focus elsewhere. The ongoing effort to educate the end user has to be the immediate aim.

Thanks for this post, Amy! What a wonderful way to celebrate rhinos on this special day.

If some people are wlinilg to put time and money into an ecosystem in order to keep their playing ground usable, why not. It’s a deal. It’s not an ideal situation but an ideal situation would be an utopia. What’s clear is that private property will make for good and likely the only effective protection. It may get violent given the difference in wealth in these regions but, you know, Africans are plenty, Rhinos are scarce (maybe I go a bit too far in my acceptance of free market economy).
