In the largest single rhino translocation ever undertaken, 30 white rhinos have been introduced to Akagera National Park in Rwanda, sourced from andBeyond Phinda Private Game Reserve in South Africa. Announced on Monday November 29th, the translocation was carried out through a collaboration between the Rwanda Development Board, African Parks and andBeyond, with funding provided by the Howard G. Buffett Foundation.
One problem with growing the population of a nearly extinct animal is the small gene pool makes reproduction difficult.

Next time, please don’t cut off their horns. Rwanda can protect them from bad people, but they need to protect themselves against lions and such. Unless you also defang lions to make it even!
