Six Flags Wild Safari Introduces Sawyer, the Southern White Rhino!

Meet Sawyer, the Southern White Rhinoceros! Six-year-old Sawyer joins three adult female rhinos in the Afrikka section of the safari. Although grey in color, the southern white rhinoceros is the largest living species of the five species of rhino, averaging 4,000 to 6,000 pounds. At 3,800 pounds and growing, Sawyer has a youthful bounce in his step and enjoys human touch like scratches from a bristle brush. With a diet of hay and grain, Sawyer and his fellow rhinos are one the world’s last remaining “mega-herbivores” - a large animal that eats mainly plants. He lives side-by-side with other animals native to Africa such as elephants, ostriches and zebras. Come see Sawyer on the Wild Safari Drive-Thru Adventure! Learn more at www.sixflags.com/safari
