The table is set, the guests have arrived, and dinner is served. Most evenings, Max hosts a party of pigs and assorted hangers-on. These wild warthogs have taken up residence around the Nairobi Nursery and come and go from Maxwellโs stockade as they please โ sometimes with his blessing, other times much to his chagrin.
Maxwell is a unique orphan: he is blind, due to a congenital eye condition. We rescued him as an infant back in 2007, after our Keepers found him lost and crying in the forest. Because a blind rhino would not be able to survive in the wild, Max has a forever home with us. Our โNursery patriarchโ is a much-loved member of the family.
