"let's go and have a closer look at this one" last words of many tourists/silly guides :)

It is a white rhino, the main feature to tell black rhino and white rhino apart is the shape of their lips. The white rhino is so named after the afrikaans for 'wide', white rhino's have a wide mouth, where as black rhino's have a much narrower set of lips.

and just as everything was cool..some jackass's Blackberry started ringing..and Momma Rhino decided to f$%& some shit up!!!

That's definitely a white rhino. If it was a black rhino, it wouldn't be a good idea to get that close. Black rhinos are much more agressive.

I think these people lack common sense even though intelligent and can be correctly described as:  NUTS.

Imagine being the rhino - a bunch of members of a different species "sneakily" trying to get close to you, obviously the rhino thought they were there to attack it which is why it stood up getting ready to defend itself or scare the predators away.

Most white people are fucking dumb when it comes to understanding animals.

Its a White Rhino, Black Rhino's is al whole lot more aggresive and you wouldn't be able to get that close to them... Pretty cute

I'd just love for one of them to run up to that rhino and slap it on the ass, then run like hell LOL!

hay que tener pelotas para hacer eso, mas cuando se acercan tanto a una hembra con cria.
