Rhinos Roaming at a Florida Wild Preserve

The following images were taken at the Lion Safari animal preserve in Loxahatchee Florida. For this post I have included a few shots of rhinos that I came across along my journey across the park.

These animals were separated from the spectators by a good amount of space because they tend to get aggressive and can charge your vehicles. Luckily I had really nice telephoto lens which you can see in the last photo of this post.

I was surprised to see the little white birds following around the rhinos. Interestingly, each rhino had it's own bird. It may be my imagination, but it seemed like each bird would only follow around it's own particular rhino.

Some of these guys looked pretty rough, as if they have been in a lot of fights. The horns looked pretty worn out. My guess is that they have a lot of really old animals there. They are an endangered species, after all. We may be the last generation that gets to appreciate them before they are driven to extinction by poachers.

I hope you enjoyed these shots! Check back soon for more images from my Lion Safari adventure!
