PROTECT
THE WHITE RHINO
We are committed to wildlife conservation, particularly for the endangered white rhino. Our journey began in South Africa with two rhinos on private land. In the past two years, we've expanded our efforts to Namibia, relocating nine white rhinos to our private ranch in the north.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

My time spent with First for Rhinos was an experience that will remain as one of the most amazing in my life. To be part of the First for Rhinos Team, as the veterinarian darted the rhino and his staff worked quickly to take vitals and then send the massive animal on his way, was so heartwarming. Touching the rhino and feeling his breath gave me a heightened level of desire to be a part of their preservation and population growth for years to come. Thank you, First for Rhinos, for your dedication to saving these beautiful animals.

My experience with First for Rhinos was unforgettable and ranks among the greatest of my adventures. It was absolutely incredible to track, dart, and watch the veterinary team perform a health check. Being so close to a rhino and feeling the rise and fall of its chest as it breathed was beyond words. Thank you, First for Rhinos, for your unwavering commitment to protecting these extraordinary animals.

Our trip to South Africa was full of firsts, and maybe the only time we experienced God's creation as we did. Our experience with First for Rhinos is among our most treasured opportunities. These creatures are remarkable. The vet team was incredible.
That combination allowed us to admire the large species up close and personal. We are so blessed to have participated. This fueled our desire to see this species preserved. We can only hope that future generations will be able to experience the same joy.

I have made several trips to South Africa and didn't plan on going back anytime soon.
When the opportunity of darting a White Rhino was presented I could not resist.
Having the opportunity to help in the conservation efforts of First for Rhinos was something I'll never forget. Being up close to such a magnificent animal from skin texture to massive size is unbelievable.
The initial tranquilizer is slow to take effect. The veterinarian's measurement, samples ,and chipping is done quickly. Reversal of tranquilizer to up and going is just enough time to get a safe distance away.
I've hunted many species but this was one of the most gratifying all around.
Hunters conservation is very important around the world.
Thanks again to First for Rhinos efforts.

Help us to protect the white rhinos. In order for us to fight the war against rhino poaching, we require the funding to fit satelite tracking devices on our white rhinos, this project enables us to not only track movements but also gain valuable insight for research and anti-poaching efforts.
