OUR PROJECTS
RHINO BUDDIES
As the IRKA continues to expand internationally, the Rhino Buddies program is a great opportunity for members outside North America to have an avenue to communicate new ideas or voice logistical challenges while also having another point of contact. I believe we can all gain from seeing how each region manages their collective rhino species relative to their available space, dietary differences / availability, husbandry and climate constraints.
Currently in its infancy, we are also looking to expand the Rhino keeper buddies program. This entails connecting keepers via email / skype to allow some international or new keepers that otherwise may not have alot of contacts an opportunity to liaise & discuss relevant rhino husbandry information, learn about other countries and share ideas.
If you are interested in becoming a rhino buddy, can speak a second language or know someone that may benefit from the program, please contact Reese Brewer at CBrewer@white-oak.org.
