Black Rhino |
We were at Aweng in early March. Yet we walked straight on to a pair of those black rhino. They were less than 30 yards off but behind a screen of thorn, whither they retire the moment dawn comes, and I know them too well to go and shake hands with them. One was lying asleep (half an hour after sunrise) and one standing. I noticed that their ears, though much smaller than the white's, have the same fringe of black hair all round; I thought that this was a peculiarity of the white.
