Adopt a Rhino
It costs R25,000 per annum to adopt a rhino.
Imake a Difference wishes to thank the following proud rhino adopters;
Debbie Eastwood, Wellington – Jonah
SPL International UK – Hope
Noble Grape Canada – To be named
The Wallace Family, Petone - Mia
Imake Limited, Tane
The Adopt a Rhino funds go towards the following:
-
Project Rhino Tracker – the fitting of the latest GPS technologies to rhino to allow better monitoring of rhino populations on key protected areas.
-
Rhino Monitors – employing full time personnel who track the rhino and try to locate each rhino at least every three days.
-
Somkhanda Game Reserve – the adopted rhino live on the Somkhanda Game Reserve, a community owned reserve, created following land restitution to the Gumbi tribe. The successful involvement of indigenous communities in conservation will greatly increase habitat and also assists hugely in the fight against poaching.
This programme has proven to be a huge success as it creates a nearly constant presence around each individual rhino with the community outside the reserve helping in the fight against poaching.
