GoPro Shows Life Through the Eyes of a Critically Endangered Black Rhino

Illegal poaching for rhino horns has left the black rhino as a critically endangered species. To show life through the eyes of one of the world’s most threatened animals, the rhino sanctuary Care for Wild Africa strapped a GoPro Hero 3 Silver to the back of an orphaned young rhino named Thor.

“We put a GoPro on Thor for a few hours to see what he gets up to,” the sanctuary writes. Thor “was just 2 weeks old when his mom was needlessly killed for her horn.”

The Care for Wild Africa Rhino Sanctuary works to rescue, care for, and rehabilitate wildlife that has been injured and/or orphaned. You can donate to the orphaned rhino rehabilitation program here.
