Protecting black rhinos in one of the harshest landscapes on Earth takes commitment, resilience… and donkeys 🫏
Thanks to everyone who supported our 2024 Big Give Christmas Appeal, together we raised £84,332 for Save the Rhino Trust’s Mounted Patrol Unit in Namibia’s Kunene Region.
Because of you, rangers stayed in the field, rhinos were monitored across remote terrain, the Axab camp was upgraded, and the donkeys at the heart of this work were cared for throughout the year.
In 2025 alone:• 118 confirmed rhino sightings• 224 days spent in the field• 578 combined ranger field days• 624km covered on donkeyback
This work matters. Two rhinos were still lost to poaching this year, reminding us why continued protection is so important.
