The S.A. Wildlife Foundation has resolved to give financial assistance for relocating a breeding herd of black rhino in the Gona-re Zhou GR. It was proclaimed a game reserve in December 1968. The black rhino has been completely wiped out by poachers in the area. A few roaming individuals are still to be found in the densest of forests, but they are doomed if they are not resettled. Some 30 of these rhino will now be captured and re-introduced in the Gona-re Zhou GR, which provides a most suitable habitat.
