Mvura was bred in captivity as part of the reintroduction of Black Rhino into Matusadona NP in Zimbabwe. She mated with a wild male & now is the mum of a wild calf. Murume named by the girls of Chisipite Junior. School, Harare.
Because of her captive breeding she often calls in at Rhino Safari Camp on the shores of Lake Kariba. Every time I have stayed here she has shown up, normally waking us in the middle of night as she chomps away at the scrub.
The time this was filmed we had set out on foot to track Mvura my wife had declined the extra early morning call but as she came down the steps from our thatched stilted room she had to do a quick about turn for Mvura was at the bottom step! I
This year from waking us at 2 am she had travelled many kilometres in a few hours, Benson picking up her spore each time we crossed it by Land Rover. Finally we found her far to the East in thick bush. We wonder if she is now preparing to mate again & is preparing Murume for his solitary life.
Jenny & her Guys at Rhino Safari Camp have a special relationship with her & keep me up to date on her life & visits.
If you want the best safari camp in Africa this is it! (Lord & Lady Kippers ***** rating)
