Baby rhino born at game
reserve on Valentine’s Day
“Visitors to the Aquila Private Game
Reserve & Spa, about 2 hours drive from Cape Town, might be in for a
beautiful safari surprise with the possible sighting of a new rhino calf at the
reserve. The anti-poaching unit started their Valentine’s Day with a sighting
of the calf with its mother on the reserve…14 February 2020.
Aquila is proud to have been able to bring
the first rhino to the Western Cape in 250 years & in February 2005, the
reserve announced the birth of the first rhino in the Western Cape in 250
years. Now, 15 years later the reserve conservation teams are absolutely
delighted to once again be able to confirm the birth of another baby rhino on
the 10,000 hectare Aquila Private Game Reserve & Spa…
In May 2014, Aquila acquired a…male rhino
bull to continue its breeding programme at the reserve. The new rhino bull was
purchased from the Limpopo area after his owners discovered signs of the rhino
being tracked.
At the end of 2015 & the beginning of
2016, Aquila was proud to announce the births of 4 rhino calves at the reserve.
This Valentine’s Day birth is once again a
proud moment for the conservation teams at this Cape Town Big 5 private game
reserve – as they continue to conserve, protect, & preserve these species
for future generations.”
