Very very nice Ndloti :thumbs_up: That one on left seems to have a thicker horn and probably a bull :hmz:

I haven't seen rhinos with such long horns in Kruger before. Really fine specimens.

Yes , really fine specimens , very skittish though . Whats even more fine about it was that we were alone with them for a few minutes till they ran off , the cars engine was turned off as well .

Indeed ! I understand that her movements are being monitored by Sanparks , and hopefully she could be fitted with a tracking collar ?

I agree it would be the best and it would be a little saver than some others. :pray:
