"Together let's MOVE from caring to doing -
Extinction cannot be our legacy"
Roughly 10 000 rhinos have been poached for their horns in the last decade...
South Africa, home to over 80% of the world’s rhino, is at the heart of this struggle. Poaching figures indicate a decline but grim population statistics reveal the concern that this is simply because there are fewer rhino left to poach.
As responsible citizens and custodians of our natural resources and wildlife, how can we risk saying that in our lifetime we allowed the extinction of our rhino?
We have to act to debunk the myth that rhino horn has value other than when it’s on a rhino, secure natural protected habitats, stop corruption and poaching, apply pressure to government and policymakers to intervene meaningfully and do what we can as individuals to take a stand against the unrelenting attack on this iconic species before it is too late.
82% of the world’s wild mammals have been lost since 1970 and currently, a million species are facing extinction in the next few decades. If we can’t save the rhino – how will we save the rest?
The time “to care” has passed… the time “to do” is now! Together let’s move from caring to doing!
