We were privileged to have recently been invited out on a Rhino collaring exercise with Brent Cook of the Chipembere Rhino Foundation, internationally acclaimed wildlife vet and Rhino Champion Dr. William Fowlds and their respective teams. What an incredible experience it was!
 
Being able to see first-hand all the hard work and care that goes into this necessary practice, and witnessing the passion and enthusiasm of all those involved was truly humbling. And to top it all off, we finished the day on a hilltop overlooking the African bushveld with a hot and much needed cup of Chipembere Blend!
