Climbing Kili 4 Conservation

In September 2010 the Rhino Maniacs will be climbing the world's highest free-standing mountain... Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania.

The Rhino Maniacs are a group of Chester Zoo employees, who have come together in their own time to take on this challenge.  Why?  To help raise awareness and funds for Eastern Black Rhino conservation... and because maybe they are all just a little bit mad!

The Eastern Black Rhino is getting dangerously close to extinction, with only around 700 left in the wild.  We have pledged to raise £10,000 for Black Rhino conservation. The money that the Rhino Maniacs raise from this challenge will help support conservation efforts both out in Tanzania and here in the UK at Chester Zoo (registered charity no. 306077). 

We need your help!!!
