On the 29th of June, Keri Miller paid a visit to the Manyoni Private Game Reserve in Zululand to catch and dehorn a rhino along with David Attenborough's children, Josh and Amy.

Reporting live at the dehorning expedition, Keri interviewed staff at the game reserve, as well as Dr. Mike Toft, who explained the process of catching and dehorning a rhino.
