Original text on this topic:
Diceros bicornis in Addo NP. Monitoring the reproductive history and to some degree behaviour of all individuals since their introduction has given valuable insights into the management of rhinos in small parks. This has been incorporated into present management practices such as the policy of not introducing new animals into established home ranges, rather creating vacant areas within the sanctuary through fencing or purchasing surrounding land and later dropping the fences once the newcomers are established.
