The Rhino Rescue

We had the privilege of going on a Rhino Rescue.  We got up at 5 am and met the helicopter at a prearranged spot.  The veterinarian and ranger helped us understand how important this operation is to save the endangered rhino's in this area.  The helicopter went up to locate a rhino and then we sprang into action as we followed them to the spot where they had tranquilized a rhino.  They had located a mother and baby white rhino.  The mother had already been tagged and marked so we were able to help protect this 2-1/2 year old baby girl from the poachers.
