Friends of Thomas Baines Nature Reserve

The Friends of Thomas Baines is a civic organisation that aims to assist in the promotion of the Thomas Baines Nature Reserve, close to Grahamstown. Tom the white rhinoceros, who has now moved on to happy grazing grounds, lived in Thomas Baines, and was known far and wide for the exceptional length of his horn. The Friends of Thomas Baines have been instrumental in removing  invasive alien plants (IAPs), so that future generations can continue to enjoy the diverse local fauna and thicket vegetation.
