In the unlikely picture above, Conservationists helicopter a black rhino to safety in South Africa.  

The current population is severely threatened by poaching, and protected environments have been established where it is believed the rhinos can be kept safe.   Unfortunately for the rhino ( I guess) they are put to sleep for the short flight, and thus cannot appreciate the amazing journey they are taking.  I just hope this one doesn't wake up later with a crick in his/her neck.
