I think all my fellow liberals can agree that Baraka means blessing (okay, so it actually does, in Swahili, a fact outside of partisanship). This black rhino lost one eye in a bar fight and then the other to cataracts. Rhinos have limited vision anyway, but not having any is pretty much a death sentence. Baraka has become a blind ambassador for rhino conservancy in Ol Pejata Conservancy. And he let us feed him carrots and give him scritches, so I have been fully ambassadorisized*.
*I’m considering making a resolution to bastardize at least one word in each post. It’s quite entertaining to sucker-punch spellcheck, although very much like biting the hand that helpfully edits for me.
