World Rhino Day
22 September (international)
World Rhino Day highlights efforts to debunk the myths that that rhino horn contains curative properties, and diminish the demand for rhino horn. It is an international team effort co-organized by Lisa Jane Campbell of Chishakwe Ranch in Zimbabwe and Rhishja Cota-Larson of Saving Rhinos in the US.
At Rhodes University, staff and students are involved in raising awareness about the Rhino.
