About the Item
This Rhino & Baby sculpture has been dedicated to celebrate the birth of Blizzy, the first rhino calf in history born from orphaned rhino parents. Both the mother Wyntir and the father Storm were orphaned when poachers killed their respective mothers while they were still very young calves. Wyntir and Storm underwent extensive care and rehabilitation before entering the CARE FOR WILD RHINO SANCTUARY rewilding and release program.
This baby is a symbol of the life and light that is possible, she gives hope for the species and for humanity.
It was a monumental and emotional moment for Care for Wild’s Founder and CEO Petronel Nieuwoudt, and the Care for Wild team who run the world’s largest orphaned rhino sanctuary and specialize in the rescue, rehabilitation, release, and ongoing protection of this iconic and endangered species.
Wyntir was just 2 months old and weighed 107kg, when she was rescued from Kingfisherspruit in the Kruger National Park after poachers murdered her mother. Alone and defenseless, Wyntir was attacked by hyenas who ripped off her ears and caused severe wounds. Wyntir’s name is a pure reflection of the hardship she endured and her struggle for survival. Storm was orphaned in the Limpopo area just over 10 years ago in an equally devastating attack when poachers brutally murdered his entire family and left the 4-week-old calf to die. Both Wyntir and Storm were rescued and brought to Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary. They are 2 calves of over 100 rhino orphans that have been rescued since the conservation project began in 2011.
“Save rhinos, to save people, to save tomorrow” is the Care For Wild motto.
