We were able to visit an elephant rehab
facility. Here they rescue elephants from other farms in Africa where they are
over populated, preventing them from being poached, and transporting them to
less populated areas. Some have been trained to be able to work with tourist
and we were able to ride one!
We visited one of the largest white rhino farms in the world. This farm as successfully helped save the species from extinction,educated veterinarians and reduced white rhino poaching by trimming rhino horns. Rhino horns are very valuable and are illegal to sell, this makes it very attractive to the black market. Trimming the rhino horns help reduce the amount of poaching in South Africa.
