African Rhino
The Rhino Revolution (7 hours).
“Another fantastic course and that little clip to finish was so incredibly heartfelt – I could feel the emotion in every word. This only drives my determination to advocate for these magnificent animals in any way possible in the hopes that our children will get the opportunity to experience the majesty of a rhino .”
~ Nirvana, University of Edinburgh
