Chester Zoo - Indian Rhino

2009-05-30 - Indian Rhino

Patna busy eating as much of the new grass as he can.

Presumably the Deer and Blackbuck will be moved out of this paddock at some stage- there certainly won't be any grazing for them anymore and they could break their legs too in the rutted ground. I much preferred this enclosure with just the hoofed animals and no rhinos. I just think the Indian rhino would have been better kept in another (larger)area.

Problem is there is no where to hold these rhinos in the current zoo boundaries. Paddock used to be lovely although pretty empty.
