More than 2000 rhinos have been killed since 2010, poached for their horn for the Asian market (mainly China and Vietnam) where the powdered horn is believed to have medical therapeutic properties. These claimed properties are not backed by any scientific evidence.
I took this photograph of a White Rhino in the Kruger National Park in South Africa. A bird was just about to take off in front of the rhino, so I quickly took the shot to capture the bird flying away from the rhino.
I'd like to think that the bird represents hope in the preservation of this amazing specie that is facing extinction.
