Rhino


Rhino

On our very last day at the Wilderness Tented Camp in Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe, we came upon a male and a female rhino out on the veld at sunset. These huge beasts have been hunted to near extinction but thanks to the efforts of many interested parties, they are being re-introduced here in the park. 

The male, built like a Sherman tank, hovered around his princess protectively, circling her,and posturing for our vehicles, like "Don't mess with my woman..."
