WORLD RHINO DAY
📍. Zimbabwe Parks And Wildlife Management Authority Kyle recreational Park, Zimbabwe 🇿🇼
On September 22nd, World Rhino Day celebrates five species of rhinos around the world. From a conservation perspective, the day raises awareness of the plight of these beautiful beasts.
Rhinos were once found throughout Eurasia and Africa. In the early 20th century, about 500,000 rhinos roamed the earth. Today, rhinos have a hard time surviving outside national parks and reserves.
HOW TO OBSERVE
World Rhino Day is a time to spread awareness on how to save the rhinos. Zoos, game reserves, and rhino sanctuaries around the world host a variety of events. World Rhino Day is especially popular in Africa. Concerts, mountain bike races, art auctions, soccer tournaments, and anti-poaching benefits are just a few of the many kinds of events held.
If you want to participate in World Rhino Day, learn about rhinos. Donate to charities that support rhino conservation. Some of these include the World Wildlife Fund and the International Rhino Fund. Watch a documentary, such as The Last Rhinos, that discusses rhino poaching and extinction.
