Light up, Light up
Last night beautiful Table Mountain in Cape Town had a special lights display of an image of a Rhino to create awareness of the 32 rhinos killed this month as well as the horrific number of rhinos killed in 2012, 668 to be exact!
The display was Table Mountain National Parks pledge to help protect the rhinos,
"All nations, all the people of South Africa must work together to save the majestic large rhino; if we don't - what chance is there to save the smaller species from extinction? By the gesture of the projected image, we all pledge our support to all those who are battling this scourge against our beautiful natural assets," they said in a statement. Link from News24
Along with the Hawks anti-poaching helpline number 071 348 8630 , the image was up for an hour.
Thank you so those that were involved - I feel its a great way to remind people of the terrible slaughter that is happening to these beautiful animals and to motivate us all to do our part in saving the rhino!
