#Rhinos at the Kidepo Valley national park, Uganda, following the first wildlife exchange between Kenya and Uganda. For the first time in more than 40 years, rhinos are back in #Uganda after poachers there slaughtered them all for their prized horns and meat. Two southern white rhinos became the first of eight animals to repopulate the park where the last rhino was killed in 1983. The rhinos were translocated from a Kenyan game reserve.
