Watch MILKING THE RHINO Tonight on Independent Lens
Everyone has seen a nature documentary with a ferocious kill on the Serengeti Plain. Well, here’s a different story about villagers navigating the dangers and costs of living with wildlife.

Check out the trailer below:
MILKING THE RHINO airs tonight at 10:00 PM on Independent Lens on PBS (check local listings)
