And People Think Safaris are Fun..

We were part of a team that helped tranquilize a black rhino in order to relocate it to a safer location. Once the rhino was knocked out, we physically (by hand) had to lift the rhino onto a tarp and then slide it onto the back of a truck. It took a team of about 25 people to do it. When you think about that fact that you are handling a black rhino, an endangered species that is so heavily protected by the people who inhabit the land it roams, it really puts into perspective where you are and what you are doing. This was the first day I was on the program.
