Meet Carla, a black rhino calf orphaned on September 1, 2007, when her mother was shot dead by poachers for her horn. Carla was shot high through the shoulders by poachers who then tried to cut off her tiny horn while she was still alive but luckily she escaped. The six-month-old calf was found by Chiredzi River Conservancy staff who treated her injuries and are now caring for her. Labels: Poaching, Rhino, Zimbabwe |
