The Rhino Run in Wied iż-Żurrieq

One of the oldest animals on the planet, the rhinoceros, is under threat of extinction due to rising demand from a fast growing middle class in China and Vietnam.

Rhino horn is used in these regions as a magical cure for everything, from cancer to enhanced sexual performance. But in reality the horn carries no medical properties whatsoever. In fact, it is made from the same matter that human fingernails are composed of – keratin.

Rhinos are being brutally killed at a rate of around 3 per day at the moment. Statistics reveal that 790 were killed in South Africa alone so far this year, with these numbers constantly soaring at an alarming rate. If this continues, soon the death rate will overtake the birth rate, and at that point rhinos face the very real prospect of becoming extinct.

Commenting on his initiative, Sian said, “My dream is to make it the biggest single day trail running event on the planet, with multiple events taking place all around South Africa. This year it has finally gone international with the first official Rhino Run outside of the country, taking place in Mississippi, the USA.”

As he is currently in Malta, he decided to get in touch with some local trail runners in an attempt to add Malta to the growing list of countries for future events. He was assisted by Andrew Warrington from MC Adventure, who put him in touch with a group of local trail runners headed up by Ruben Degiorgio, and they held an informal Rhino Run starting at the Blue Grotto, east of the fishermen’s harbour Wied iż-Żurrieq in the village of Qrendi. They followed a 10km route on some spectacular single track trails, running at the same time as the events being held in South Africa and Mississippi.

Sian hopes that in the years to come Malta will join the list of countries to help grow this into a truly global event that highlights the problem not only of rhino poaching, but of poaching in general – a problem that even Malta faces.
