ACT NOW – HELP A RHINO ON WORLD RHINO DAY

#HelpARhino is an opportunity for us all to stand up for rhinos and to show that we care about their future. Together we can all get directly involved with helping to protect this iconic species.

On average, over 2 rhinos are killed every day

We must stop the slaughter

Time to act to #HelpARhino

HELP US RAISE AWARENESS FOR RHINOS 

Get involved. Here’s what you can do to #HelpARhino:

  • Download the #HelpARhino poster, take a selfie of yourself holding it and post on social media using the hashtag #HelpARhino. You’ll be in good company - look out for some familiar faces doing the same on our social media channels
  • Download the fun colour-a-rhino poster and share your finished coloured rhino on social media with a selfie. It’s a great way to get young students involved with crayons and creativity. Don’t forget to add the #HelpARhino hashtag in your post and we'll share the best ones!
  • Follow Helping Rhinos on Facebook, twitter and Instagram and share our rhino posts on your own social media pages using the special hashtag: #HelpARhino

  • Host your own #HelpARhino fundraiser – do a fun challenge, get some friends together for a party, have a colour-a-rhino competition, play pin the tail on the rhino! Just don’t forget to share your photos with us on social media with hashtag #HelpARhino

WHY DO WE NEED TO HELP A RHINO?

Rhinos are being poached for their horn at an unsustainable rate, to serve the demands of China and Vietnam, the largest importers of rhino horn. South Africa, home to the largest number of rhinos in the world, lost over 1,000 rhinos last year, leaving the population number perilously low.

HOW MANY RHINOS ARE LEFT IN THE WILD?

White rhino – 20,000-22,000, near threatened

Black rhino – 5,000 to 5,500, critically endangered

Greater one horned rhino – 3,300-3,600, vulnerable

Sumatram rhino – less than 100, critically endangered

Javan rhino – 67, critically endangered

Without focused help, rhino numbers could plummet further. A species that has roamed the planet for 50 million years should, surely, be revered and safeguarded for future generations to enjoy. That they may go extinct in our lifetime is a tragic reality.
