Sir David Attenborough close up with blind baby rhino

submitted by mintbbb

1 decade 2 years 1 month ago

YouTube Description:

Sir David Attenborough concluded his BBC One series about the wildlife of Africa with an extraordinary close up meeting with a blind baby rhinoceros.

He described how the rhinoceros may have its sight saved by an operation and thus be given a chance of survival in the wild like another orphaned rhino called Elvis who had been released after being cared for in the same reserve.

And this is why Attenborough is so fantastically good at what he does, and has captured the hearts of so many people. This isn't for the camera. Filming's over and this is just how he plays with a blind baby Rhino. He so obviously cares about animals and it's completely and utterly infectious.

Still works for me? Maybe it's a regional thing?

Cataracts don't cause complete blindness, but surgery will improve this little guys sight a whole lot.

Yes, David Attenborough is a prize.
