Here's a picture of the famous Black Rhino 'Gertie' of Kenya's Amboseli National Park, that's before her horn dropped off in the 1960s.

Weird how a non-zoo animal can grow such a distended horn without it getting broken or something.
 
Regrettably her horn did become detached :(

I wonder where the horn went, is it with the warden's family or possibly the ranger station ??

Hallo, ein Freund von mir lebt auf einer Farm in den Rocky Mountains.
Leider kam es dort in den letzten Wochen zu Bränden.
Hoffe es geht dir gut!?
