This is great news .

African Parks are doing a great job of rehabilitating our parks ,after years of neglect.

Good news indeed but I really hope they learnt the lessons from the Chad relocation, 2 out of 6 survival rate is not great.

Hopefully the conditions here will be more favourable, since there is a well established local population.

I understand they are not sure what caused the 4 deaths in Chad, none of the tests provided any definite cause, other than poor nutrition/absorption?

Fingers crossed.

Considering African Park's approach to conservation (i.e. making sure local communities benefit from conservation and tourism) I have got high hopes for these Rhino. I'm going to look for them in Liwonde/Majete this December/January: very excited
