Following our announcement of a new birth at Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary in South Africa, we are extremely humbled and privileged to be able to share this incredible footage with you. 9 year old white rhino cow Olive, gave birth to a male calf at 07:50 this morning, 11 August 2022. For the first time, the birth was captured on video by Olive’s guard. Despite keeping his distance, Olive remained close to her long-term protector throughout the early stages of labour and kept him close during delivery. This is an unbelievably special moment to see this precious new life take his first breaths. Olive was orphaned in 2013 after poachers killed her mother. She was just 10 months old when she was rescued and brought to Care for Wild. Olive was one of the first rhinos to complete her rehabilitation program and enter the rewilding and release program. Her little son has become the third calf born to two orphans of poaching making Storm a father for the third time. Another light, another sign of hope
