One of the two mums

we saw with their calves. The bulls were not around, they were with a herd of buffalo.

Stellar capture...great details

[KoalaGardens🐨]

such magnificent creatures, their story is just too hard

[Babs]

Typical, mum looking after the kids while dad is at happy hour ha ha

[Kathy A]

Nice mum and bub shot

[Cordiander]

Nice pic. It's a shame that their horns have to be cut off because of people.

[narayani]

Nice capture

[Mags]

Neat capture! Sad to see their horns like that, but I understand why.

[Beryl Lloyd]

Aaw! How wonderful to see the two together with mum protecting her child ! fav

[Helge E. Storheim]

Such an exotic sight for a Norwegian. All I see on my walks are dogs, crows and seagulls :-)

[Jerzy]

Amazing animals!

[Steve Chappell]

Nice capture

[Beverley]

I’m soooo happy and really thrilled to see this photo today, the incredible animals… I hope they’re protected and looked after.
Needless to say I Love this photo!

[Christine Sztukowski]

So fabulous

[katy]

This is such a fabulous close-up photo, but a little scary to be that close

[Susan Wakely]

They ain’t pretty but interesting looking animals all the same.

[Bobbi C]

Well captured. I love the monotones.

[Bucktree]

Great capture of these magnificent animals.

[Merrelyn]

How wonderful to be able to see these magnificent animals in the wild. Lovely capture.

[Paul J]

Nice capture. Junior looks like he’s taking a nap.

[Renee Salamon]

So sad about their horns

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Terrific capture.

[Michelle]

Amazing capture of these magnificent animals

[Paula Fontanini]

This is such a sweet capture! I am curious as to how they remove their horns...I assume they have to tranquilize them, but can they do it right there or do they have to transport them somewhere else for the procedure?

[Carole Sandford]

Lovely capture!

[Kate]

Looks like a mud bath is all the rage for mum and her calf

[Corinne C]

Fabulous capture. I'm so sad to see their horns cut maybe this stops the poachers?

[Heather]

An endearing scene and capture, Diana! But how sad that their horns need to be removed. Poachers! Agh! (Fav for your great photo!)

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Great shot- mum seems to be doing a good job. Her baby looks very happy and healthy.

[Bill]

Nice shot of the two.

[Rick]

Great capture.

[Chris Cook]

So cool

[Diana]

@bluemoon I don't think they transport them anywhere Paula. They get sedated, blindfolded and put earplugs in the ears. The horn gets removed with a chainsaw but only the top part without nerves. The base is then sanded down :-(

[Christina]

So lovely

[Olwynne]

Superb capture

[Louise & Ken]

Stunning! It's a sad commentary that rhino's have to be disfigured to avoid being poached! Tell poachers to just go sit and bite their own fingernails for all the good it does!!! :(

[Diana]

@cdcook48 @christinav @ollyfran @Weezilou Thanks so much :-)
