Name: Jabari
Black Rhinoceros (Diceros bicornis)
Country: Kenya

Jabari is a black rhinocerous bull, 20 years old, known for his colossal size and exceptional gentleness toward humans. After poachers slaughtered his mother so they could sell her horn on the black market, Jabari was rescued by rangers and taken to a rhino sanctuary. His human caretakers struggled to keep the orphan alive, naming him Jabari which is Swahili for “the brave one,” because of his stubborn stoicism and will to survive. Though bull rhinos are apt to charge other animals and people, too, Jabari seems fond of people and allows his anti-poaching guards to stay close—probably because of the care he has been given since he was rescued as an orphan.

Your adoption will help AWF support and expand black rhino conservation programs at Kenya’s Ngulia Rhino Sanctuary and in Zimbabwe’s Hwange National Park.

More information on Jabari is included in the Factsheet, which will be delivered, along with a plush rhinoceros and a personal adoption certificate (suitable for framing) to you or the person of your choice. Your adoption gift also includes an annual African Wildlife Foundation membership, and one-year subscription to our quarterly “African Wildlife News.”
