They do this to move them from remote areas, once they get to vehicle accessible areas, they use trucks. Surprisingly they did a study and found that this method is the best for the rhino with the highest oxygen levels while being heavily sedated.
Sedated doesn’t mean incapacitated. They are just looped out to where they *hopefully* don’t spaz out and hurt themselves or others. A lot of tiger parks do this as well
I watched this show recently, I think. One of the lines the narrator came out with was: "20 minutes is the maximum time a white rhino can be hung in the air upside-down".
I just burst out laughing at the thought that people must have actually tested this at some point.
Maybe it will be a quiz question at some point? Idk. It just felt like something I should remember.
I actually wrote the line down, and have it committed to memory. I even just checked my notes to make sure I had got it right.
**Engineering 2CL0 Final Exam**
You are transporting an endangered White Rhinoceros from the depths of the African savanna to a safe new home in the Chicago zoo. The rhinoceros is 3.7 m long and weighs 2,300 kg. You are operating a Bell 205 helicopter with a maximum takeoff capacity of 4,309 kg and a range of 560 km. What is the maximum inverted flight time of your rhinoceros?
it's not good for any large mammal to be inverted, its circulatory system is designed to work with gravity going the other direction.
also, the rhino being sedated means that its body can't handle as much mistreatment.
probably the rhino could go a lot longer than 20 minutes but they don't want to risk hurting such a rare and majestic beast so they err on the side of caution. for example, that guy who got stuck in the cave upside down took more than a day to die of heart failure.
Yah,
> “Most other animals, when you hang them upside down, it’s usually not good for their respiration,” Radcliffe says. “I think the reason it’s different in rhinos is they have a big head that acts as kind of a counterweight to the rest of their body; it stretches out the neck, which opens the airway. It also straightens the spine, which eliminates other concerns about having an animal upside down.”
This is a recognized and award-winning method of transporting them.

I haven't followed your links, but from memory the longest time a white rhino can be hung in the air upside-down is 20 minutes. The narrator of this show told me that, and I made a note of it for moments such as these.
Here's your ticket, be sure you show it to the nice conductor when he comes by. Your lunch is in the bag. When you arrive, someone will greet you and help you with your bags.

When you stop making payments on your rhino
Reporhino
Reponoceros
Rhepo
Rhypereon
Ripoff
Rheponoserous
Now I want to see a show named RepoRhino
I'm here to talk about the extended warranty on your rhino.
Let’s talk undercarriage
That’s one way to stop them from charging
But the cables are plugged in though?
Got me, nice. Bet the pilot has a smug satisfaction grin…
Shame his friends won't believe him when he tells them he got abducted by a UFO
No, I'm for real! I could see the entire savannah.
It was really blurry!
"...and upside down for some reason."
I think I was in Australia.
We should ship all the criminal rhinos to the outback
"... I was super high mentally and physically... but it's real, I swear"
Looks like John got into the fermented berries again.
Underrated comment
What! rhinos can fly?
Flynocerous
My beats are fat And the birds are on my back And I'm horny, I'm horny
Wow.... Flight of the Conchords reference...touche Laflore
That's a whole new level of ANGRY BIRDS. The pigs never stood a chance.
Too bad the poachers have taken out most if not all his friends
In this new habitat he will get to make new friends and maybe new girlfriends so his seed can repopulate his species
“Get this, first they shot me in the butt…”
… no one’s gonna believe you!
Suffered an anal probe.

Earth by Lil Dicky
Thank you! I love the music video haha.
Pretty hot in these Rhinos...
I forgot how fucking batshit that scene is. Legendary
\*googles how to be a rhino*
So there I am hanging from all fours with my grassy knoll and my gassy hole just flappin' in the breeze.
My favorite! Thank you!
“Yeah right Carl! Always with the stories”
Me, the chosen one? I didn’t even graduate from fucking highschool!
Right?! How do you explain that to your rhinbros?
They do this to move them from remote areas, once they get to vehicle accessible areas, they use trucks. Surprisingly they did a study and found that this method is the best for the rhino with the highest oxygen levels while being heavily sedated.
Sedated doesn’t mean incapacitated. They are just looped out to where they *hopefully* don’t spaz out and hurt themselves or others. A lot of tiger parks do this as well
so where do I need to wander before I get the free dope and helicopter ride? I can put on some weight by eating ice cream if needed.
A roof during a massive flood.
*Drugs recommended but not included
That's a legit answer.
I love how they basically roofie the rhino and then move it with the most extreme non-consensual shibari session of all time.

"YES, I fucking knew all that time wasted on Reddit would pay off" Answer - About tree fiddy
Which Chicago Zoo though, Lincoln Park or Brookfield?? This is pertinent information!
And can I ignore friction?
kilograms, kilometers, and meters, Oh My!
Assume for this problem at the rhino is a perfect, frictionless sphere
What happens at 20 minutes? Does it die?

Makes sense. Plus the body and all the blood is heavy. I can imagine what's going on in its brain when that much blood pressure is on it.

The terror makes them breath better
Me removing my dog from the park
Ultimate sky jail
Me removing my toddler from the park
Lmao… I could see that!
I see you also have a golden retriever
Border collie mix
I feel for you
"Bringing trophy aboard"
Got to stop them from trying to eat the littlier dogs somehow

This needs to be higher. This research actually won an ig nobel prize!
The Ig Nobel prize is a parody of the Nobel Prize, meant to celebrate unusual or trivial advancements in science. Basically, it's an "lol wtf" prize
Listen I’m just glad it’s not short for Instagram.
Please tell me there is a website that has collected what are essentially "lol wtf" awards in arts and science?
Yes, there is a list on Wikipedia. It's amazing. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ig_Nobel_Prize_winners
thank you SO much for this link i have spent the last 20 min giggling as i read through all the winners
This https://preview.redd.it/674ddtr02x7d1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=51245aeda8ed837f6c582c4fa91decd65c4aa305 Definitely deserves the original price
Yeah, it's amazing! I love it. My favorite part is that an actual nobel laureate cleans up the stage after the audience throws their paper planes
But they reward real and valid research. It might be on hilarious topics but "it's real science".
I haven't followed your links, but from memory the longest time a white rhino can be hung in the air upside-down is 20 minutes. The narrator of this show told me that, and I made a note of it for moments such as these.
I'm surprised their shoulder and hip doesn't get dislocated with that much weight hanging
Fair enough, I was watching this thinking there HAS to be a better way 🤣
That’ll teach him not to chase cars
This made me genuinely smile. I wonder how many will get it
I just watched said clip before finding myself here.
Me too!!
I had a man reuniting with a herd of elephants between the two rhino's video xD
I'm convinced all our scrolling is the same
Also the two best buds meeting during an Uber ride.
I was looking for this comment hahaha. “All I had to do was chase a car and now I’m flying!”
![gif](giphy|tnYri4n2Frnig|downsized)
Im assuming its sedated but Imagine if it wasn’t
The dart is still in its rump!
that's also where the best meat is
Then it would end up being a RINO. (Relocation in Name Only)
Your mom's sex swing.
Registered: Peso Pesado
Animal tested; Rhino approved.
The tranc dart sticking out of its ass somehow makes it look way more undignifying than it would have otherwise.
I somehow doubt removing the dart would have made the flying sedated rhino appear more graceful and angelic
[удалено]
Tactical rhino incoming!
This wasn’t upvoted enough… 😂
"I have to go. My people need me."
Imagine waking up to that
I thought he was about to poop.
I thought Jim Carrey was making his attempt at an escape.
It is still the number 1 most hilarious movie scene ever filmed
My humor has changed alot since I got older. But the memory of my 1st time seeing that scene, thought I was going to pass out weezing.
Sure gets hot in the rhinoos
Operation Rambi drop.
Fucking everything needs a prequel these days
They could’ve at least blindfolded the big guy
They're already blind af
He's tranquilized and out cold
Pop holding it down
Would that have made it worse or better?
Depends on what that rhino’s kink is.
Nice camera trick. The image is actually flipped. The Rhino is in fact flying the helicopter to safety
That Rhino is gonna have one heck of a story to tell his friends
If only they can do this to me to get me to go anywhere.
Keep eating. You’ll get your wish someday. You probably won’t be alive for the move though.
That's fucked up, but humorous. Upvote
Was anyone else expecting Jim Carrey?
One method? There are other methods???
Trebuchet
I came here looking for this answer.
Here's your ticket, be sure you show it to the nice conductor when he comes by. Your lunch is in the bag. When you arrive, someone will greet you and help you with your bags.
This would be wild AF for the rhino
"Guys. You won't believe what just happened to me. "
His poor heart, must be terrified
“Dudes, I had the craziest dream last night…”
My ex wife moving out after the divorce lol.
Flipping the rhinoceros upside down soothes him into a hypnotic like state.
The Rhino: "I said Horn!...that is the safe word, you are supposed to stop"
I thought Jim Carey was gonna pop out for a sec
I definetly picture it thinking to itself "Nice try, fuckers, but I'll be back" as it's whisked away
Imagine what the rhino is thinking… maybe he’s being abducted by aliens???… 🤦🏾♂️
That would be fuckin scary being that Rhyno
Just happened to have the opening of Gimme Shelter by the Stones on when I saw this. I would rec re-editing immediately with it as the soundtrack.
“Fortunate Son” would be funny too
His friends will not believe him.
Man that's gotta be trippy af for the rhino
...I should call her
Gotta be the most unnatural thing I’ve seen today
🎵Now, this is a story all about how, my life got flipped-turned upside down 🎵
Yeahhhh…. That’s not stressful to the animal at all
does it hurt the rhino
You know what? Fuck you *Takes your rhino*
![gif](giphy|v9NQh6NwzghAk)
Ok bob your turn to untie him
He’ll be a god wherever they take him
"You guys will never believe this..."
You can see Bros butt clinch, super tight
This is how they used to forcibly remove me from the bar.
It looks painful... imagine it's weight being pulled by it's feet with strings.
Imagine walking through a park and some fucking jungle cowboy ropes your feet and next thing you know you’re being flown to another park… by your feet
Imagine him talking to his rhino friends.....
Can you imagine what that rhino is thinking?
That's exactly how Jim Carey was moved around the set of Ace Ventura 2.
Bro used fast travel
Video ended before showing Jim Carrey falling out.
***FRIENDLY TACTICAL RHINOCEROS INCOMING***
This rhino will tell his friends he was abducted and no one will believe him
I knew I shouldn't have ate that funny looking mushroom.
rhino: why should I be the one to be relocated?
Is this the sequel to Operation Dumbo Drop?
Relocation and chiropractry all in one.
Operation: Rhino Drop
![gif](giphy|v9NQh6NwzghAk)
He was probably dosed with ketamine too. Wild ride.
🎶 I can show you the world 🎵
Can you imagine what this animal is thinking at that moment
That elephant should have a blanket or something on its back to give it support. Just tying it to the limbs is not good enough
I said I would leave on Tuesday!
I shouldn't call her...
I dont know if rhinos have dignity but that’s gotta be fucking humiliating. Hopefully his rhino homies didn’t see that
How embarrassing
That can’t have been good for the rhino! Wonder what damage they did to the rhino hauling him that way?

i would be so fucking mad if i was that guy
The rhino knows this shit aint right
Can you even begin to imagine what the fuck it must be thinking???
This is a strange world. Humans moving around big animals in helicopters. Wtf.
Get rotated nerd
Can you even imagine what that rhino is thinking as he’s being flown?
Damn, hoping it has a blindfold at least😂 poor dude was caught in the rapture
Book flights with Ryanair? I thought you said Rhinoair.
YOLOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Cursed sex swing (I apologise in advance for my degeneracy)
I wasn't the only one waiting for it to take a huge upside-down dump, right?
