Whipsnade Zoo, Dunstable, UK. 21st September 2016. A two-tonne greater one-horned rhino at ZSL Whipsnade Zoo being treated to a giant ‘game’ of building blocks to help mark World Rhino Day (22 September 2016). Forming a six-foot-high wall, zookeepers specially decorated more than a dozen boxes, stuffed with 14-year old male rhino Hugo’s favourite treats for him to discover - and demolish. Head of ZSL Whipsnade Zoo’s Asia team, Donovan Glyn said: “We're giving Hugo a brand new game to recognise World Rhino Day; a specially-made set of stacking blocks, stuffed with his favourite foods. “The tower of blocks may just seem like a bit of fun, but it is really exciting for the rhinos to discover new things in their paddock as they are very inquisitive animals. “A herd of rhinos is also known as a ‘crash’ and we predict this will be a very apt description for how Hugo approaches his stacking blocks!” Andrew Walmsley/Alamy Live News
