The Rhino's really don't look all the dangerous, even when your right up close.... can't say I'd like to annoy one and find out just how mean it can be when provoked :D .... they have cute faces :lust

Hi there Saurora , yep they cut the horn off with a chainsaw after they sedate them, our guide did tell us why they do but I forget what she said already :dunno ...... I will ask next time I go there.

The Rhinos looked very placid .....thanks for looking .... Skippy (Australia)

Thank you Awais, the Rhino's were not disturbed at all, I think most of them have been born and raised at Werribee, but I could be wrong. :D

They are a magnificent beast indeed ....... Skippy (Australia)
