Sunday Funday: track white rhinos on foot at the Ziwa Rhino and Wildlife Ranch!

Rhinos were officially declared extinct in Uganda - but - with the assistance of rhinos from Kenya and donations from Walt Disney World Animal Kingdom (Disney Conservation Fund) Rhinos were brought to this sanctuary property.
The very first calf born was of the mother from Florida (and father from Kenya) -- and he was named Obama! (born in 2009) (And, yes!, I did purchase the Obama t-shirt pictured here.
I had a wonderful guide (Brian) who went over all safety guidelines before leading me to this "crush" of rhinos resting in the shade. I learned so much about rhinos - which I will try to update this post at a later time.
There are cabins and a new restaurant opened on the property - so you could stay for more than an afternoon.
