crowrifleGreat photos. I guess they remove the rhino's horn to protect them?

GAHUNTERI assume these photos, at least the rhinos, were taken in the Save Conservancy.
Not too sure I want to walk up that close to an elephant, unarmed.

David HulmeThank you for the comments.
crowrifle: Yes, they dehorn the rhino as a deterrent to poachers. Dehorning is a bit controversial but my personal opinion is that it does more good than harm
GAHUNTER: The rhino and elephant are in the Save Conservancy and the lions are in Chewore. Don't worry, we were armed. Armed with the knowledge that flight is often the better part of valour! Ha ha.
Thanks again to you all

Her glance penetrates deep in to your soul!
Well, I was sitting in a Land Cruiser, 4 meters from her, however, the guide didn't have any rifle!
