Endangered animals traveling 1500 kilometers through South Africa!
A video made by Green Reinassance zoo adventure that documents the helicopter was transporting a group of 19 black rhinos by 1500 km in South Africa Animals extremely endangered, were rescued from the Eastern Cape by the WWF and brought to region of Limpopo, where they will be protected from hunters.
Black rhinos moved to new home by helicopter from WWF on Vimeo.
The group of animals is part of the seventh population of black rhino rescued and relocated by the WWF. The action, which began on November 3, apparently risky is the safest and quickest way to transport the animals, say representatives of the WWF.
The rhinos, weighing 800 to 1400 pounds, were very stressed when the path was made by land, the road was unstable and was taking too long. Conservationists then decided to sedate the animals, tie their paws on a steel cable attached to the helicopter and go on the air for 10 minutes, the worst part of the way.
Finally some kind of action that really takes into account the welfare of animals, not only the interests of the governments, like that control of the number of elephants through massacres, this is a real example!
