You don’t generally think of a rhinoceros frolicking–but hey, babies are babies. This little guy is playing with his zookeeper. His momma is just a few yards away–a situation which, in the wild, might be fraught with danger for the keeper.
For the longest time rhinos were portrayed as bad-tempered, wantonly aggressive animals. But in the 1950s Jean-Pierre Hallet tamed an adult male rhino and used to ride around on him. Love and kindness did the trick, he said. It usually does.
That was great. Even rhinos have lighthearted times. 🙂
The baby rhino was having fun.
