Young woman mothers rhino orphans

Jamie said, "We work very closely with all the rhinos that come to the orphanage and form special bonds with them, this makes it very heart-breaking when some of them don't make it. Another difficult part of working with baby rhinos is seeing how traumatized they are after witnessing their mothers being poached. They are in an unfamiliar place surrounded by the same creatures who killed their mom. It is a long process to earn their trust and allow them to settle into their new environment. Some of the babies that come in still call for their moms days after arriving and it's a very heart breaking sound to hear." [Photo: IC]
