Kruger National Park in South Africa is a wildlife haven, home to some of the world’s most majestic animals. On a recent visit there, a visitor was lucky enough to witness something truly remarkable: rhinos stopping traffic! It was an unforgettable experience that taught the visitors a valuable lesson about respecting nature and its inhabitants.
The scene unfolded as the bus the visitor was on chugged along the park roads. Suddenly, the bus came across a herd of rhinos blocking the path. The Kruger National Park Rhino were completely unbothered by their presence and seemed content to simply graze on the grass around them while cars waited patiently behind them. The bus driver attempted to push through but quickly realized it would be futile – these massive creatures weren’t going anywhere anytime soon! The visitors sat back and watched as the Rhinos slowly moved out of their way after their leisurely meal.

What is the difference between a White Rhino and Black Rhino?
The physical differences between White and Black Rhinos are quite distinct. The first noticeable difference is the head shape of each species. The Black Rhino has a shorter head from forehead to mouth, but with a more pronounced and smaller skull than the White Rhino.
White Rhinos, on the other hand, have a longer and less defined forehead, as well as a much longer skull. Another difference between the two species is their posture when grazing; Black Rhino tend to carry their heads higher, while White Rhinos usually keep their heads lower, closer to the ground allowing for easier feeding. In terms of physical features, Black and White Rhinos are very distinguishable from one another.
