The Rhino Conservation Experience
The Rhino Conservation experience: Is a opportunity to participate in a unique conservation experience by joining a responsible rhino trimming session led by Nico Jacobs, the esteemed conservationist and founder of Rhino 911, alongside top wildlife veterinarians, conservationists and anti-poaching ranger units. You will witness firsthand the essential medical interventions carried out to protect Africa’s dwindling rhino population.
Participants will start on the ground in vehicles and will follow the helicopter as Nico and the veterinarian team spot the rhinos. Followed by a rare up-close encounter with Africa’s wildlife (the rhino) and actively taking part in the procedures. These hands-on activities involve various interventions on both white rhinos and the endangered black rhinos, including: responsible rhino trimming and trimming maintenance of rhino horn due to their continual growth. Comprehensive health assessments such as; blood sampling, vitamin administration, ear notching, satellite tagging, rhino horn measurement, and other necessary procedures conducted on individual rhinos as determined in the field. Participants will also ride in the helicopter with Nico Jacobs at some point during all procedure.
All interventions are meticulously overseen by experienced-top-veterinarians and conservation teams to ensure the safety and well-being of the animals. The utmost care is taken during these procedures, recognizing the vulnerability of the animals at such times.
