As promised, I just reposted your site on the Elephants sub Reddit. Included info about your activities 4 kids that parents & teachers can use (spring break thoughts!) & mentioned that I chose the sub reddit Elephants because of the strong connection between tusk & horn poaching.

'We will save them': The quest to rescue nearly extinct rhino Two rhinos munch serenely on grass as the sun rises over Mount Kenya, oblivious to the massive global endeavour to prevent them being the last of their kind.

Only TWO northern white rhinos are left on Earth. Hereโ€™s how conservationists are fighting to save this precious species thatโ€™s teetering on the edge of extinction โคต๏ธ

The interlinking of horns with other illegal trades is a key reason why its so hard to intercept & dismantle these trades. Also very difficult to end consumerism when there is a disconnection between a dead rhino & the horn the consumsr is using

Thank you. None of our admins are on Reddit so appreciate that. I think it was Traffic & EIA that found trafficking of horns & ivory are linled with drugs, weapons & himan trafficking. We have downloads explaining uses in our 'resource centre'

Did you know rhino calves aren't born with horns? Instead they develop small stubs shortly after birth.

Did you know rhinos are born without horns? Their horns are made of keratin, much like our fingernails, and begin growing after birth. They'll keep growing for the rest of their lives!

A devestating loss. There disconnection between consumer of rhino horn & the cruel death of an animal to obtain it. We are losing the battle. There are sround 2000 whites left in the park. Every rhino now counts.
