Armed Guards Protect Rare Rhinos in Kenya

Description:Rhinos in a Kenyan nature conservancy are under 24 hour armed guard. The Rhino is an extremely endangered species that continues to be under threat. Poachers are after the rhino’s horn, which is used in traditional Asian medicine, though it is reported to have no medicinal value. At the nature conservancy there is a group of 126 rangers and a 30 man anti poaching team, one of whom is a former poacher. (1:17)
