"Ben Carter heard the story of the fearsome black rhinoceros during a trip to Namibia more than a year ago, and it’s still fresh in his mind.
The bull roamed the dry fields around a sprawling ranch where Carter had stayed as a guest. It was a brute, weighing nearly 3,000 pounds. It was said to be too old to sire offspring but jealously guarded cows in the herd, preventing them from breeding with younger males.
'He’s killed a couple of calves, a couple of cows and a breeding bull,' said Carter, executive director of the Dallas Safari Club, a group that advocates wildlife conservation through hunting. 'He’s not contributing to the habitat; he’s just existing there.'"
