Scarlet Snow Belo now has a cute "younger brother" in Africa.
On Sunday, January 3, 2021, the five year-old daughter of celebrity beauty doctors Vicki Belo and Hayden Kho Jr. revealed on Instagram they are adopting a rhinoceros in Kenya.
Scarlet Snow was excited to share in her post it was she who named the baby rhinoceros Plasty.
Her caption read, "Guess what, peoples! We’re adoptIng a younger brother for me.
"Do you want to know who he is? He’s a baby rhinoceros!
"He’s a baby cousin of the 4yo rhino you see here. He needs our love and protection because poachers killed his parents to get their horns.
"So, Daddy and Mommy agreed that our family will adopt him. I get to name him and I’m thinking of calling him, 'Plasty the Belo Rhino.'"
Of course, they won't be bringing the rhino to the Philippines. But in adopting Plasty, the Belo family will be providing financial support to The Lewa Wildlife Conservancy for the protection of critically endangered species.
Scarlet Snow explained in her post, "The money will make sure he has veterinarians and rhino rangers from @lewa_wildlife who will make sure Plasty is safe and healthy. #NewEarthHeroes"
She also reminded, "There’s not many rhinos left on earth so they really need the protection of us kiddie rangers!"
