Kevin Pietersen teams up with the outback wrangler Matt Wright, former cricketer Graeme Smith, and orphan rhino mum Petronel Nieuwoudt in SAVE THIS RHINO, airing in the lead up to the world cup of cricket. Presently, three rhinos are killed every day and if this continues, the animal will be extinct by 2025. If the ban on illegal rhino horn trade is removed, it could be as rapid as a couple of years.

Save This Rhino is a thought-provoking and emotionally-charged documentary charting the struggles, obstacles, and wins of the courageous men and women who are determined to fight on the frontlines of this conservational war to prevent rhino extinction. Prepare to be inspired by their resilience, unwavering dedication, and bravery. An avid conservationist, Kevin Pietersen is deeply committed to saving the rhino and making a real difference in the lives of these majestic sensitive creatures, who until 100 years ago were roaming in their hundreds of thousands across the continent.

Shot with the support of Cisco, Dimension Data and Land Rover South Africa, entirely on Canon equipment, Save This Rhino follows the desperate efforts in South Africa to save the critically endangered rhinoceros. 80% of the world’s rhinoceros, whose population is now hovering below 25,000 at the hands of poachers hunting for the highly sought-after rhino horn, live in and around South Africa.
