As promised, we are very proud to announce that all the funds for the “Golfing for Rhinos” golf day have been allocated successfully to Save The Waterberg Rhino. R530 000 worth of camera equipment, time and energy… This was a joint project run by Baby Rhino Rescue and Conserv Earth, all to raise funds for the license plate recognition cameras in the Waterberg Biosphere. These critical cameras aid in security and are vital for protection of rhino in the region. The cameras have all been purchased, installed and are operational.
Thank you to all who took part in the day, your support and generous donations have made a real and tangible difference! This is such a ‘big” and real conservation effort, as this will help protect the rhinos during the Christmas period which is notorious for spike sin poaching!!! We cannot share specific images of the process and cameras themselves due to security concerns, but please know that we have achieved what we set out to accomplish, and the rhinos are in good hands…
