Protect our Planet | Conservation Collaborations | Moving rhinos from Phinda to Rwanda
We are excited to share that 30 white rhinos have been successfully translocated to Akagera National Park in Rwanda, from &Beyond Phinda Private Game Reserve in South Africa.
30 years ago, when we started out, there was not a single white rhino on &Beyond Phinda Private Game Reserve. Now, 30 years later, we have been able to take part in the largest ever (single) rhino translocation in partnership with African Parks and the Rwanda Development Board (RDB), with funding provided by the Howard G. Buffett Foundation.
This historic translocation of 30 white rhinos, aims to extend the species’ range whilst also creating a new secure breeding stronghold in Rwanda where the population can grow and thrive.
Over the next few weeks, the rhinos will be closely monitored as they acclimatise to their new home. The RDB and African Parks have been partners in the management of Akagera National Park since 2010. Thanks to a significant improvement in security, as well as crucial community programmes, they have ensured that this is a safe and ideal environment for the continual reintroduction of new species.
We are incredibly proud to have partnered with these organisations in this historic move to ensure the longevity of an iconic species like the white rhino.
