Follow a rhino calf as it takes its first steps on an exciting journey through life in the African bush. Join the calf as it learns how to find tasty leaves by pulling down branches with its horn, and how to keep cool by wallowing in muddy waterholes. Meet some of the other animals that share the rhino's woodland habitat, using its wide tracks as ready-made routes through the thick bush. Find out about the threats facing the black rhino and what can be done to protect one of the most endangered animals in Africa.
