The White Rhino And A Pair Of Oxpeckers, Kruger National Park, South Africa
The white rhinoceros or square-lipped rhinoceros is the largest extant species of rhinoceros. It has a wide mouth used for grazing and is the most social of all rhino species. The oxpeckers are endemic to the savanna of Sub-Saharan Africa. They have the habit of perching on large mammals (both wild and domesticated) such as cattle, zebras, impalas, hippopotamuses, or rhinoceroses, and eating ticks, small insects, botfly larvae, and other parasites

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Artie Photography showcases the harmonious relationship between a majestic white rhino and a pair of oxpeckers in Kruger National Park, South Africa. The white rhinoceros, known for its impressive size and wide grazing mouth, is not only the largest extant species of rhinoceros but also the most social among its kind. In this image, it peacefully coexists with the oxpeckers - endemic birds to Sub-Saharan Africa's savanna. The oxpeckers exhibit their unique habit of perching on large mammals like cattle, zebras, impalas, hippopotamuses, or even rhinoceroses themselves. They play an essential role in maintaining the health of these animals by feeding on ticks, small insects, botfly larvae, and other parasites that may harm them. Artie Ng's photography beautifully captures this symbiotic relationship between two different species thriving together in nature's embrace. The lush bushland surrounding them adds to the authenticity and serenity portrayed in this image. As we admire this breathtaking scene from Kruger National Park through Artie Photography's lens, we are reminded of the delicate balance that exists within our natural world. It serves as a poignant reminder to appreciate and protect these incredible creatures who call our planet home.
