A baby rhino abandoned as a newborn due to a case of mistaken identity was saved by a local rescue team. The rhino, now one month old, lives with the team at Aquila Rescue Centre, who have developed an 18 month plan to reintroduce him into the wild.
Looking after the young calf is a full-time occupation, with the baby needing to be fed every two hours. He has also be assigned a mentor to teach him how to graze, something his mother would have done. 

To raise funds for his care, the centre is running a competition to pick his name, which will be announced Feb 8. To enter visit: https://www.facebook.com/Aquilasafari/photos/a.112064745515240.15362.108368995884815/937367679651605/?type=1&theater

For the year and half it will take to build up his strength, the Aquila Rescue Centre is appealing for donations. To donate visit www.animalrescuecentre.co.za
