Douwlina's story began with great sadness when she lost her mother to poachers, but it has a happy ending. From the time Douwlina was rescued, loving people—and even animals—have stepped forward to care for her. In Africa, where Douwlina lives, there were once over 100,000 of these smart, magnificent animals. Now, there are less than 20,000 on the entire continent, and one is poached every day in the Kruger Park alone. Rhino are killed illegally for their horn, because people believe it has power in traditional medicine and rituals. The cost for an ounce of horn can be as high as five times the price of gold. This tender story shows how each animal and human who has been part of her life has helped her. It highlights the bonds between people and animals and reminds us of the importance of being good stewards of the animals who share the planet with us.
