RHINO MONTH
September is an extra special month ..... HillsNek Safaris is supporting WWF with RHINO MONTH! Take a stand, get involved, make a donation and spread the word to help save Africa's rhino against ruthless poaching and the threat of extinction.
September 22nd has been declared RHINO DAY whereby all citizens are implored to make a noise and send out an urgent plea for help from our leaders:
"Concerned about Rhino poaching? Then get ready to take a stand and to make some noise.
On 22 September, RHINO DAY, WWF calls on all concerned citizens of the world to dust off their vuvuzelas, toot their horns and to make as much noise as possible, at 1pm, as a symbolic act to send a powerful message to leaders that the time to take serious and effective action against rhino poaching is now.
RHINO DAY will be the culmination of a month-long campaign by WWF and other partners, encouraging the public to help support South Africa’s rhino warriors – the men and women at the frontline who risk their lives daily against the sophisticated, ruthless and heavily-armed international criminal gangs who run the illegal rhino horn trade.
Together we can all play a role in the fight against Rhino poaching.
As part of RHINO MONTH, WWF is challenging individuals, businesses, schools, universities and other organisations to not only make a noise on 22 September, but also make a donation which will ensure that much-needed anti-poaching equipment and support can be secured for rangers across the region."
