World Rhino Day is an initiative that brings NGOs, zoos, rhino sanctuaries, and concerned citizens across the globe together to raise awareness and funds for the five species of rhinoceros — all of which are under threat from the illegal rhino horn trade. World Rhino Day was initiated by WWF in 2010 and has since become a global phenomenon.
In celebration of the World Rhino Day 2012, the Department of Environmental Affairs made a renewed call for action by all South Africans against the ongoing scourge of rhino poaching, ahead of the third annual World Rhino Day on the 22 September 2012.
