Uvalde, TEXAS (Ammoland.Com) – Stewards of Wildlife, a non-profit organization based in Uvalde, Texas that offers a safe haven for struggling exotic animal populations, is moving forward with its most ambitious project to date: Rhinos Forever. First introduced at the Exotic Wildlife Association (EWA) Conference in 2015, Rhinos Forever’s mission is to bring rhinoceros from South Africa to ranches in Texas for safe keeping until such time the environment in South Africa is favorable for a thriving rhino population

“If we can’t take the danger from the rhinos, then we are going to take the rhinos from the danger. And no better place to do that than in Texas where the climate and terrain is very similar to South Africa’s,” said Cole Reid, manager at Morani River Ranch Preserve and Director of Special Projects for Stewards of Wildlife. “What we’ll do is source a population of rhinos, which means a population held in reserve to offer protection, in order to re-establish them and then send back home when ready. No matter what happens in South Africa, we’ll have a viable, sustainable population protected and thriving.”
