A successful course and passing out parade to end!
Dog Training and Handling - Level 5 was completed by RR rehabilitator Phillip Vivier, and Vulcan’s two Protrack handlers Brett and Emotion.
Chrisjan Visser (specialist trainer from Kilo9 Kennels) put them through their paces during the 6 week course. They covered health and care, tracking, detection, bite work and other theory and skills in order to work with Vulcan correctly and develop his ability as he grows.
We think he looks pretty pleased with himself!
Thank you to Rhino Revolution UK for supporting Vulcan’s costs and this specialised training
Annual International Pangolin Conference
Anna Mussi and Harriet Nimmo attended the #InternationalPangolinConference at Skukuza, Kruger National Park hosted by African Pangolin Working Group.
This was a chance for experts, veterinarians, rehabilitates, researchers and passionate individuals to all share information, advice and a wealth of knowledge.
It is so great to be connecting with so many pangolin experts, sharing best practice and making new connections. It is vital we all come together in our work to save the 8 species of pangolin worldwide.
CoC Kennedy joins on patrol!
During her time in Hoedspruit, it was great to have donor Kennedy Zakeer from the wonderful Council of Contributors join us on mounted security patrol, seen here with her trusty steed, Splendid Tambur.
Kennedy has been a long supporter of Rhino Revolution; assisting with camera trap monitoring projects, dehorning operations and now the mounted patrol unit.
Thank you for your valuable support!
