Uh, there's someone in the back with longer hair rubbing as well. I think THAT'S the reason the rhino is happy.

lol.. Rhino has never felt that before, better keep it up forever

I'm worried about how hard that guy has to scratch before the rhino feels anything to begin with. Their skin is half an inch in most places.

good point.. Rhino does seem to be sticking around for it though

The rhino has no horn...
mcscusemebeeitch
If i remember correctly, horns are removed to protect rhinos so poachers have no drive to kill them since it's the horn they want anyway.
Ihavewaytoomanyfavoritestosort
And it still doesn't work because they shoot the rhino and take what's left.
Maliique
Yeah, that can't be good for the rhino. Imagine the rhino not being scared of humans/poachers. Sad.
RecentlyChangedMyName
Southerns are more like cattle, espacially those in human care, which this obviously is. And poachers mostly hunt at night, using snares 1)

they put up before and other disgusting instruments to make it easier.

Not true. A few species rhino are going to be extinct but rhinos as a whole are doing well

NO! They don't! There are some places where southerns and blacks have steady rising numbers, but overall this will mean nothing, if there 1)

are no policies to truly protect them and banish trade worldwide.

it actually looks like his horn has been poached :(
ChillaAquila
maybe they cut it off to deter poachers? Not worth the hassle then
RecentlyChangedMyName
No, it was dehorned to avoid it getting poached. Sad practice, that is very often needed in poaching prone reservates.
SeriouslyAwkward
O that's pretty cool then! But wouldn't this harm this rhinos way of living or not?
samsonguy920
Poachers go for the entire horn, as in what is also below the flesh. What this rhino has will still do plenty of damage.
samsonguy920
Is it better to get punched by a big brick or stabbed with a big spike? I don't see much a negligible difference.
RecentlyChangedMyName
It will probably have a degenerating impact on those affected, losing one of its most important defense mechanisms... but who knows...
RecentlyChangedMyName
It is less attractive for poachers nonetheless. There aren't that many options left for Vets and Rangers... Reservats are underfunded and

You can be 100% sure that was done by an African immigrant who has done it before in the wild and know how to sell it and what its worth.

1 or more African nations are hunting poachers "with license to kill". They're wanted alive, but if not - no biggie.
koka101
Heard something about American Marines being sent to help with hunting for them (poachers) but that was before Trump so who knows now

should be the case for all poachers in all nations they operate as they are armed threats to park rangers.

There are more than that, Lewa wildlife conservancy in Kenya has done an excellent job of protecting the black rhino. They have not lost 1/

a single rhino to poaching in the last 3 years, and their rhinos make up 15% of the remaining population of the animals.

There's 15k rhinos left in the wild, but 11k of them are white rhinos. Others are black, Javan (40), Sumatran (250) and Indian rhinos. Sad.
RecentlyChangedMyName
wrong numbers, more like 25k to 30k
aDefenseless9yearOldGirl
There's around 30k white rhinos in the wild. You're using data at least a decade old.
NICKFOU
Yeah I just saw that Wikipedia (both in French and English) and other specialized websites were using 2008 data... But the WWF says 20k...
CindyWho4
I definitely trust WWF on this topic.
aDefenseless9yearOldGirl
Why do people think this? There's tens of thousands of rhinos. They're at the carrying capacity of their habitat. They're thriving. Two 1/2
vamenn
I think people always think about the Western Black Rhino, specifically, and just assume it's all rhinos.

Species of rhinos that were never as adaptable as southern whites are critically endangered, but as a whole, rhinos are doing great. 2/2
MatrimBloodyCauthon

dumbleduck
Only +/- 5000 black rhino left worldwide and about 19000 white rhino. The numbers were increasing but are starting to decrease rapidly again
aDefenseless9yearOldGirl
Nope. Don't know why you think that. It's not accurate
CindyWho4
IMO "doing great" is a stretch. The majority of healthy populations are within reserves, & so many species are still critically endangered.
LimerickGoblin
You shouldn't have been downvoted, you're spot on. The white rhino is the only species of rhino that is not endangered.
KingDonaldJTrump
I think people hear about that last 4 Northern White Rhinos in Kenya, and only one is male in 24 hour surveillance. They are cattle in SA.

In SA at most game reserves they also have 24 hour surveillance. Currently working at a game reserve that has caught poachers on the reserve

theactualfrickinmoon
Some organisations cut the horn off to safe the rhinos life, because those assholes are just interested in the horn
CindyWho4
Which is the saddest shit ever. Akin to genital mutilation to stop rape. I like the organizations that dye the horns/tusks better.
The2020ElectionWasStolen
Wait whut?
theactualfrickinmoon
the sad part is that they have to do this...
Qumefox
Problem with both that, and the cutting them off, is that the poachers will kill them anyway just to not have to track them.
GanjalfTheGray
Death of the assholes cutting the horns off, correct?
icelaw
Morally and judicially, they deserve to be treated fair and to have a fair trial. But no one says a little "mob justice" couldn't "fix them"

Yup, was too lazy to figure out how to reword it to make it clearer and under 140 characters.

Good. Now, the answer to the poachers problem... Legalize hunting poachers. Think about it...

I don't want to kill them, per se, but their cocks would probably be good if you cut them off and mashed em up and snorted them

There's a big market for that. Thousands of new @OPs every day looking for a steady supply for their cock snorting addiction.
