Not a real rhino, silly. But this adorable Rhino bookmark is for one of you, and once he’s yours you can always give him a name.
All you have to do to enter is help me raise awareness for rhino conservation.

- Follow at least ONE of these great organizations (extra entries for multiple follows!), on Twitter or Facebook, or by email (make sure to let me know in comments below):
Africa Inside, where you can learn how they help African children become animal heroes. Follow them on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, by email.
SavetheRhino.org, raising awareness and fighting poaching in Africa and Asia. Follow them on Twitter, Facebook, on YouTube or by email newsletter.
Project Rhino KwaZulu Natal, a collective of private and public organizations fighting Rhino Poaching in KZN. Follow them YouTube, read their blogs, or perhaps volunteer to help them set up Social Media accounts (they aren’t asking, I’m just suggesting.)
Friends, if you have never seen a dead rhino from poaching, this is what one looks like. There are no words to describe how awful it is, and I cry every time I look. If you’re strong enough, then look. It’s something you can’t ever forget, and I believe it gives a better understanding of just how cruel and senseless it is. I won’t post an actual photo on here, because it’s not the type of content I share. But if you’re strong enough, and I think you are, please go look.
And in keeping with my own postings, I’ll end with photos of beautiful live rhinos we saw while in Kruger National Park. (Baby rhino coming next week on the “Baby Big Five.”)
Love, Marla
