Sanctuary Retreats have started work on monitoring the growing rhino population in the Moremi Reserve, Botswana.
As part of this project Sanctuary Retreats have hired two Monitoring Assistants, Ollie and Kandu. Both will be based at Sanctuary Chief’s Camp and will cover the Moremi Game Reserve area. Guests staying at this camp will have the opportunity to speak with Ollie and Kandu to find out how the Okavango Delta’s rhino population is doing.
By monitoring and studying the behaviour of the rhino, the team hope to learn more about their territories, foraging and breeding habits, this will help determine what effect the translocation project has had on the rhino and the area, and also find out if the area can handle more rhino.
Ollie and Kandu have been trained by both the Mombo Rhino Monitoring Team and the Botswana Anti-Poaching Unit.
