That's great! Thank you Maria.
I added it to the mission. It is indeed sad what's happening with Rhinos and that the captive ones are the safest.
Indeed, there are too few Rhinos left in the wild. The crisis of the Rhino is at such a point that World Wide awareness needs to be raised, this will include the beautiful rhinos in captivity, it is so sad to know that the Rhinos in zoos are the safest! Thank you for checking Maria.
Hi Smith'sZoo, thank you for the link, is it ok to add this even if it is ZOO spotting?
Hi Maria, if you like, you can add this amazing series to the Rhino's of the World mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/1284...
Your welcome! I love Rhino's too much not to say something! ;)
Thank you Smith'sZoo for the information.
Awesome spot Maria! Here are some Rhino facts:
Rhinos live about 45 years.
Rhinos reproduce very slowly. A mother gives birth to one calf every 3-5 years. Mothers take care of their calves for the first 3 years.
Rhinos are on the endangered species list.
