Meet the puppies being trained to help tackle rhino poaching

Two puppies are being specially trained in a bid to help in the fight against rhino poaching in Africa.

Bavarian Mountain Hounds Nkosi and Thula will soon be deployed as anti-poaching dogs as part of conservation efforts to protect the endangered species in South Africa.

The 14-week-old puppies were born and brought up in Carmarthen, Wales, by Dogs 4 Wildlife, which helps train dogs to work in anti-poaching canine units.
