From the WaPo, re: the Goldman Environmental Prizes, which is a $150,000 stipend awarded to six grass-roots environmentalists from different parts of the world:
"Raoul du Toiut, 53, a Zimbabwean who helped save the black rhino from the kind of political unrest and poaching that have devastated animal species in neighboring countries. Now he is working to save white rhinos in Zambia and Botswana that are hunted for their prized horns."
In times of political unrest, it is the rhinos who suffer most.
