Thula Thula Rhino Orphanage - Warren McCalister, security sponsor speaks out

Loading player...
The Fundimvelo Thula Thula Rhino Orphanage in KZN is implementing tight security measures after an attack earlier this week.

A group of at least five poachers stormed the Fundimvelo Thula Thula Rhino Orphanage on Monday night - assaulting staff members and killing two calves.

The armed men disarmed a security guard and held staff hostage for several hours. One of the rhinos had its horns removed and died immediately.

We chat to Warren McCalister, the man who sponsored the facility with CCTV cameras.
