I found this post on WWF's Facebook account, this is very recent, and a very serious attempt to save a highly endangered species : South Africa's Black Rhino. These images are amazing, and I am so incredibly thankful for the people at WWF who are so passionate about helping these animals, and go to such extraordinary lengths to rehabilitate them. The world needs more of these people.

You can find more images and information about the Black Rhino and other endangered species at the WWF website. Information is power, donate, spread the word.. please do what you can. xo





A group of 19 critically endangered black rhinos have been moved from South Africa's Eastern Cape to a new range in the Limpopo province to encourage increased breeding and population growth. The location is the seventh new habitat established by the WWF's Black Rhino Range Expansion Project.
