That is a black rhino

thanks for conferming

By the date and general appearance of the animal(obviously a male) I think you'll find it is 'Quinto' before he was sent back to Chester.

Thanks for this photo,Im pretty sure Quinto was kept in the paddock which now holds Gemsbok and Ostrich overlooked by the Cafe',Which was renovated last year is that correct?
Thanks

That's correct. I think it was only the part of it nearer the Giraffe and Wolves though. Quinto was paired with two females during his time at Whipsnade- Emma(born Chester) and then a female from Berlin who died after a short time. Unfortunately there was no breeding. Quinto was then returned to Chester and is now at Port Lympne.
