Five black rhino were brought from Natal Parks Board to Texas in March 1984. Three were taken by Game Coin to a ranch outside Brownsville. Their oldest female died reportedly from a tick disease acquired in South Africa. All three rhinos were found with ticks carried from South Africa and the ranch is under quarantaine for a year.
