These moving pictures show the release of five orphaned rhino calves back into the South African wild — thanks to the help of kindhearted Scottish volunteers.

The calves were all victims of poaching –- their mothers murdered for their horns — and were rescued by charity Rhino Revolution.

Through the UK arm of the charity, passionate Scots volunteers have been banding together to fundraise for the project.

The five calves were rescued and rehabilitated over two years and they are now old enough to fend for themselves in the wild.

The calves have all been dehorned, to deter poachers.

CEO of Rhino Revolution Phil Ovens said: “We are extremely proud of these wonderful end results – a glimmer of hope in the poaching war.”
