I have no special title. I am just a person, who is interested in the survival of these beautiful animals. I love these animals and their suffering is a great source of sadness to me.
Diane, Me as well. It is just heartbreaking to me to see who bad these animals are treated. Whomever is readying this post, I am a member babyrhinorescue.org and have donated and bought items to help. I would like to see how I can get involved to physically help. Is there a location in Texas where I can to volunteer? I’ll feed, pick up poop 🙂 or whatever. I would just like to help and donate some of my time to the animals. I can be reached via email below. Thank you for all you do!!

Hi Tonya, thank you for offering to volunteer. At this time, we don’t have any field volunteer opportunities. There are a few reasons for this. First, the cost for our field teams to provide required insurance is cost prohibitive. Secondly, there are a very limited number of research permits in some of the countries we work in – we need to save these for our staff. But there are other ways to help! Visit our website rhinos.org for other ways to support our work.

As a conference speaker for a burning issue of the world….
Hello here. Myself Anurag Hazarika from Assam,India. I am an Ex student of Delhi University,India. Actually, as we know that Model United Nations brings the world one step closer in working together to resolve the outstanding and burning issues that prevails in the world of today and which stands as a hindrance for the overall development of the human race and mother earth as a whole. I am writing here to bring to your book about a very sensitive issue which needs world attention today. The one horned rhinoceros is world famous and is only found in Assam,a north eastern state of India. But the main issue is that this species is turning out to be extinct due to human barbarity. each and every day we come across a news that a rhino has been killed at the world famous Kaziranga National Park(sanctuary) situated in Assam. The inhumane and barbarous acts of poachers in the park has led to extinct of the entire race of the one horned rhino. Each foreign tourist who visits this national park is apprehended today due to this acts .So,may I request to deliver a speech with presentations on this issue as a speaker?I assure that this would be a very interesting topic in the contemporary time. hoping to get a feedback…….
