Episode 124: Saving the Southern White Rhinoceros

Episode 124: Saving the Southern White Rhinoceros

This week we return to the rhinoceros and specifically the Southern White Rhinoceros. Since we first covered rhinos in general in Episode 3, we wanted to highlight the White Rhinoceros now and will revisit the other species at some point in the future. In this episode we go in depth to the pressures these beloved animals are facing with the poaching crisis in Africa. Patreon: Please considering supporting us at Patreon HERE.
