Eh, not up to the standards of the Bears one. I still don't have much sense of when rhinos attack, or how likely survival would be, although the descriptions of the attacks were really gruesome and icky.
What I did like were the photographs, especially after the entire chapter on photographers getting attacked. I kept looking at them thinking -- wait, what happened right after this was taken? Best example: Picture of a man standing right in a rhino's face, with the caption "A man foolishly approaches a rhino". I mean, I guess there are such things as telephoto lenses, so maybe the picture was taken from far away (or maybe the foolish man was mugging for the camera on a timer he had set up?) but it made me go "uh...."
