Coexistence gives you an exclusive insight into the world of rhino rescue and rehabilitation. Join Megan Richards on a journey of conservation, friendship and adorable rhino calves. Although Megan didn't know much about wildlife rescue and rehabilitation, she knew she had to do SOMETHING when she heard about the rhino poaching crisis in South Africa. Spending 6 months at a rhino orphanage seemed like just the thing. Raising rhinos means feeding them milk formula, sleeping side by side under heat lamps and showing them how fun rolling in the mud is. It means keeping them safe, keeping them warm and reassuring them of better days to come. These rhino orphans are scared, vulnerable and weak when they are rescued but with TLC they put their trust into the carers and their personalities blossom, as you'll soon find out. The long, hard days of working in a rhino orphanage were some of the most rewarding days of Megan's young life. This is an uplifting, fulfilling adventure that will leave you looking at rhinos in a new light. Be prepared to meet some amazing and memorable characters as you laugh, cry and fall in love with the heartfelt, firsthand accounts of the bond formed between human and animal. This is the first step into a life of wildlife conservation.
