Collaborations in the conservation world aren’t glamorous and don’t have a filter to cover sweat, blood, and tears.  A collab is bringing together the money, time, resources, and people than can pull together to help the rhino.
A reserve in the Eastern Cape needed help funding the trimming of seven of their rhinos to reduce the chance of their herd being poached for their horn.
While Veterinary Conservation Coalition helped fund the project, One Land Love It was there to assist getting the project done successfully.

• Poaching Deterrent: Rhino horns are highly valued on the black market, especially in parts of Asia where they’re used in traditional medicine or as status symbols. By removing the horn, conservationists reduce the incentive for poachers to kill the animal.
• Survival Rates: In regions like Namibia and parts of South Africa, dehorning has led to significant drops in poaching incidents. For example, in the Greater Kruger region, dehorning contributed to a 78% reduction in poaching.
• Temporary Safety: Horns regrow over time (about 5–7 cm per year), so dehorning must be repeated every 18–24 months to remain effective.
