Meet Beate the rhino
Meet Beate, a 9-year-old rhino cow, who is part of a small social group that come to the lodge every day to feed. Beate means blessed in Latin, and we are indeed blessed having her here at our sanctuary, as she brings with her a bright future for the reproduction and expansion of the sanctuary.
Beate the mother of Eric, a 4-and-half-year-old bull calf (October 2024). Eric is her first calf, and even though Eric is still too young to be recognised in the herd as a productive unit he is still likes to be part of the group. Beate had another little one in February 2024. Her female calf is doing well within the group of rhinos and Beate being a very protective mother.
DANIMEX-FOOD A/S and their partnership
It is no coincidence that DANIMEX-FOOD have chosen to become part of Rhino Sanctuary Namibia, as there is a very special bond between them and Africa.
“We, the owners of Danimex-Food A/S, have spent more than 30 years working in and with Africa. This great continent which holds it all: forests, mountains, steps, beaches, desert, and not to forget a fantastic wildlife that you never get tired of discovering. Unfortunately, several species are threatened by extinction, and the white rhino is one of these species.
When we heard about Tom’s initiative to create a sanctuary for these magnificent animals, we immediately loved the idea. And it is our pleasure to be a proud partner of the sanctuary and owners of Beate. The signification of Beate is originally the Latin meaning Blessed. It also translates into happy, satisfied, and cool.
We wish Beate a long and happy life at Rhino Sanctuary Namibia.“
Eric Delarue and Peter Worre Bech
