Help us save Thembi the poached White rhino
Organization information
Saving the Survivors
Location: Pretoria, South Africa
Summary
The aim of this project is to treat 'Thembi', a White rhino cow who was poached in 2010 and had received very limited veterinary care since. She has a horrific wound where poachers hacked off her horns. This extremely tough and resilient rhino has had two calves since the attack. She will still require on-going treatment for some months to come as her facial wound is extensive. These treatments are exceedingly expensive (sometimes upwards of US$ 2500).
