Id shit my pants if I saw him running at me
Shit your pants when confronted, you do! Even in a motor vehicle @psyceratopsb
Saw a picture some time ago where a Rhino flipped a Jeep over onto its side! The wonders of nature that are being decimated by "wonderful" man. Nature is crying out, the oceans are crying out and sooner rather than later it will be the end of this planet. Such heartsore!
Respect any wildlife is taken too lightly!
We witnessed a lone male rhino stand it's ground against a vehicle ahead of us in this very park, backing up to give the people ahead facing the rhino the opportunity to backup slowly to get out of the situation, it was a nerve wracking moment.
Wow! Scary thought and I also had a close encounter, first with a young Elephant and then with his mother. Scary!
@joanstewart,
Great post, Joan.
It's sad to think that although everyone knows how endangered rhinos are, poachers and their customers included, they cannot bring themselves to sacrifice their own self-interests to let them survive. This is a flaw in the humanity of humans.
Any attention you can bring to the issue is worthy of the effort.

Agree with you @quillfire humans think they are in control, their interests/needs come first. Humans have forgotten that we are supposed to look after what we have and everything that lives on our blue planet.
amazing pictures! That one rhino has an amazing horn, but I hope he stays protected bc I'm worried ppl would just look at that and think $$ :((
Even in restricted areas, brazen poachers still go in and kill them, yes it is all about $$$ @corinneiskorean
This is so sad... :(
We are also plagued by poachers over here - all sorts of tropical animals, including the majestic Malayan tiger has been hunted almost to extinction... The penalty for poachers need to be increased and the problem given more seriousness or more weight...
Penalty to anyone down the line involved with poaching should be life in prison or hanged!
Enough with talk, greed driven crazy should be dealt the same way.
Agreed! 😠
The photos are wonderful. I didn't know that there were so few of them.((
Thanks for taking interest in their plight @amalinavia
