About Thandi:
Thandi is a beautiful Rhino who is a survivor of a brutal poaching attack which took place on 2nd of March 2012 . Sadly, this attack also claimed the lives of two male rhinos. Amazingly, Thandi has since had five calves, Thembi, Colin, Mthetho, Siya, and Zolani. On 1 April 2023, Thandi gave birth to her fifth calf, Zolani. Thandi along with her five calves and two adorable grand-calves reside at Kariega Game Reserve in South Africa.
