Here's a picture of the famous Black Rhino 'Gertie' of Kenya's Amboseli National Park, that's before her horn dropped off in the 1960s.

Weird how a non-zoo animal can grow such a distended horn without it getting broken or something.
 
Regrettably her horn did become detached :(

I wonder where the horn went, is it with the warden's family or possibly the ranger station ??

I would be interested in it if you pass. Please send me the info on the gun shop if you do not buy it. I have the needed ammo and brass.
Thanks,
