I would imagine that anyone who has any leanings at all towards nature conservation in southern Africa would know the name of Clive Walker, the archetypal, quintessential conservationist and game ranger. But maybe not all have heard of his lifelong right-hand person, his wife, Conita.
This book is by Conita and specifically her extraordinary experiences saving and raising a black rhino calf called Bwana and other wildlife orphans. It is the story of a determined woman and a demanding rhino, the rhino in her garden – that’s the title – A Rhino in my Garden.
