Yes, we were wanting to see the elusive white and black rhinos. Not so shy on this drive. Truly endangered, however. The government does not release how many rhinos there are because of the despicable poaching issues. Poachers want them extinct so their prices will drive up. The poachers will cut off the face of the rhino to get the horns. So sad. They really are impressive animals.

| These are white rhinoceros or square lipped rhinoceros. For a discussion of why they are named white rhinos, please check the internet. Our guide, Jonny, said they were named white from the Dutch word for wide "wijd" and folks just changed it to white -- I buy it. |

| Definitely relaxed, not charging. |
 |
| Not as cool as the rhinos, but we do hold the record for hot cocoa consumption at the Mosetlha Bush Camp. |
 |
| Zeb-rahs not Zeee brahs. |
