Comment: The rhino charge is no walk in the park. In spite of the many amazing volunteers who try and alleviate the suffering with moral & liquid support, it is 10 hours of blood, sweat, tears, tantrums, chipped nails – and that’s just the boys’ teams. It demands fitness, courage, determination, brute strength, skill, team work and in the case of the very small number of girls’ teams who take part in what is a predominantly male event, full R-E-S-P-E-C-T!
