Mmmmm Milk For Orphaned Rhinos

Hello,

I’m Amelia, and I’d like to share my story with you. I’m an 8-month old white rhino. My mom was killed by poachers and now my best friend is Jessie and she is also an 8-month old white rhino. We have a big brother Kolisi who is 12-months old and our little brother Mapimpi is the newest in our family and he is 5-months old.

We all live at The Rhino Orphanage in South Africa where our 2-legged friends take care of us 24 hours a day.  They are amazing and work very hard; we try to make them dusty and muddy just for fun!

Our favorite part of the day is when we get to drink milk. It’s delicious and very important for us to grow up healthy and strong. Because we are babies we need alllooooottt of milk! In fact, depending on our age and weight we drink 4 to 6 times a day. That's between 10 to 18 liters.

Our milk is unique and does not come from a magic fridge like yours. Ours is made up of special milk powders, vitamins, rice and probiotics which all need to be individually balanced for each of us to have the right amount of nutrition and fat. Could you help fund the milk we need to grow big and strong?

Every $1 you donate = 2 liters of milk
Every $10 you donate = 20 liters of milk

Every $100 you donate = 200 liters of milk

Milk for rhino calves costs about $.50 per liter to make. Our target of $5,000 is roughly 10,000 liters that will feed us for a few weeks. THANK YOU! With love, Amelia
