The 22nd of September is World Rhino Day, a time where we shift our focus to one of the planet's most tragically endangered species, and shed light on what can be done to prevent their demise. With three of the five species of rhino critically endangered as of right now, it is absolutely time to spread awareness of the rhino's supreme adversity and to do what we can to prevent this number of deaths getting any worse. Below is an infographic which succinctly outlines the plight of the rhino, and also gives you an idea as to how you can help to protect their future. If you would like to take part in rhino conservation, head to our project pages now to find a volunteer trip which suits you.
