Safari Details

Since the beginning of the 20th century, humans had pushed the species to the brink of extinction because of extensive poaching. The surviving rhinos are concentrated in sanctuaries where they are protected from poachers and populations in these sanctuaries are increasing. In the future, rhinos from these critically important breeding populations may be reintroduced to their former homes. The Save the Rhino Safari entails support of the Rhinos by visiting the Wildlife Conservancies where they are protected.
