Dr Zoe Glyphis prepares to dart a cheetah at the Rietvlei Nature Reserve, Pretoria, South Africa, 07 September 2017. South Africa has the world's largest population of Rhinos in the world. However over the past nine years a staggering 6,115 rhinos have been killed by poachers seeking their horns for sale to the lucrative traditional healing market in the Far East. In a ground-breaking and world-leading initiative, Dr Marias and Dr Glyphis from “Saving the Survivors” race to injured and poached Rhinos once they have been called by conservation groups or private rhino owners in an attempt to save the animals and heal their often horrifying open wounds. Saving the Survivors (STS) vets, Dr Johan Marais and Dr Zoe Glyphis also treat other wildlife animals. (Photo by Kim Ludbrook/EPA/EFE)
