Rhino calf is in good shape, although the trackers have to have a visual sighting every day without disturbing the mother.  Hyena are a big threat to a calf this small. Equally, if the mother is disturbed by the trackers, she could run off and abandon the calf for a few hours, so the trackers have to avoid this situation at all costs.
