Natal Parks Board policy - Diceros bicornis. Black rhino capture and translocation commenced with the movement of animals living outside the game reserves. The black rhino has not been viewed as being a threat to its habitat consequently removal of animals was only for the purpose of establishing new breeding populations.
The policy regarding the dispersal of black rhino is that these animals are not sold but donated at cost to other conservation organisations. The Natal Parks Board require any area to which black rhino are likely to be translocated, to have habitat suitable for at least 30 adult animals.
