Black rhino
The rhino is prized for its horn. Not a true horn, it is made of thickly matted hair that grows from the skull without skeletal support. The major demand for horn is in Asia, where it is used in traditional medicine and ornamental carvings. On Phinda Wildlife Research Project you can help monitor these magnificent creatures.
