Rhinos are dying. Poaching, habitat loss, and genetic fragmentation have collectively pushed rhino populations to the brink of extinction. Illegal and deadly horn poaching is far and wide the greatest threat to rhinos. To deter this gruesome practice often calls for extreme measures… like chainsawing off a rhino’s horn.
This is the reality of the fight to save rhinos.
In this episode, Coyote’s on-location at the Kariega Game Reserve shadowing the incredible Dr. William Fowlds as he conducts two important veterinary rhino procedures. It’s a race against the clock to protect these vanishing giants before they’re lost forever.
We have a plan to put things back on track. Brave Wilderness is partnering with Kariega Game Reserve, Global Conservation Force and Bear Grylls to Save The Horns.

A massive thank you to Kariega Game Reserve, Dr. William Fowlds, Global Conservation Force, and to YOU for doing your part.

FOR THOSE THAT DONT UNDERSTAND. Us cutting our nails is what rhinos feel when cutting their horns (nothing). The reason he’s cutting the horn is so poachers don’t kill the rhino just for the horn. Poachers don’t care for the well-being of the animal and will kill it for the horn. Coyote is just making this one less of a target

For those who are confused about how they will defend themselves against predators I’ll explain. Although rhinos don’t even have natural predators, things wouldn’t wanna target it due to its size and tough skin. Even if something were to target it, a large rhino hitting something with those nubs it would be catastrophic for the predators. They are in reservations constantly being watched. WE ARE MORE DANGEROUS THAN THE PREDATORS. Let’s keep those rhinos safe❤️ Edit: some people are wondering why I made this and it’s causing some confusion, Some other people were asking how they’d protect themselves with no horn. I understand that we are the problem but I was clearing the confusion of the predator problem❤️

@@pitohui1800 non harmful radioactive implants work too. You implant a radioactive isotope (that isnt harmful to the rhinos) and a geiger counter can detect it. So when the rhino gets poached, the horn will not likely get pass boats and security checks as they always check for radioactive material. This will decrease the amount poaching as the poachers could risk getting a radioactive horn.

Furthermore, I am relieved to see him remind a first world audience, that it is not just greed at play here, but desperation. A lot of this goes on in comparatively less "fortunate" parts of the world. He reminds us that some of the poachers are still human too, people who were just dealt a bad hand in life and they believe cutting more than the safe amount of a rhino's horn will help them out. It most certainly is a vicious and barbaric circle.

My dad was in Africa in the 70’s and 80’s during his military service as a veterinarian; he used to talk a lot about his conservation of the black rhinos by cutting the horns off and many other animals working with the people of the “bush”. He was passionate about having these animals around for the next generation to see in the wild instead of in zoos. It’s a real shame the problem is still on going years later.

You do not understand. It is healthy for the rhino horn to get cut off. The horn is like our nails we have to cut them. Coyote did not want to do it, but it is for the health of rhinos.

Poaching rhinos for their horns is not only cruel, but foolish. Instead of cutting the horn where it can grow back, poachers take the entire thing and leave the rhino to die.

I was a lover of animals big and small as a child where most people would think of me as weird, and ofc, I still am a massive animal lover. They will always have a near and dear place to my heart for being majestic and beautiful as they are, even things like snakes, spiders, and other creepy crawlers that balance out ecosystems. I saw when Dude Perfect went to South Africa and did this for rhinos too, so I am all too familiar with the concept of dehorning them to save them. Also, these wildlife experts cut the horns not too far down to where, after a period of time, they actually grow back. So don't feel too bad about that but I feel bad for us humans naively hurting or fearing things we don't understand. It's always a big conception between the relationships of humans and animals and explains a lot of misconceptions people have on animals and where it's mainly based on. I, and a lot of other animal lovers, are tired and sick of this and all these people are trying to do is to a save a species that can possibly become extinct not too long from now. Maybe talk with people about stuff you might learn from this channel or other wildlife channels out there to spread the truth, instead of false assumptions, and to spread life and flourishment for all these animals, instead of increased chances of death and extinction. Thank you.
