Balla BallaRhino Capture Pics
Guests
As you will know we have sold one of our SA ranches to the government for land restitution claims and are in the process of selling and or relating the animals from the property //
We have now sold the 4 x White Rhino --- here are some recent pictures of the capture process which is darting from the helcopter, when the animal goes down the ground guys go in and put a blind fold on them, the vet guy then gives an injection to half wake the animal and they get it up on its feet and walk it into the trailer. They then give it a long lasting camitive drug and tow it away.
Cheers, Peter

Eland SlayerWhoa!! I'll bet that's a little more complicated than walking a dog.

<Hunter Formerly Known As Texas Hunter>That is very cool! I've loaded enough bulls (cattle) in trailers to appreciate how really amazing that is.
Thanks for sharing.
