Check out this rhino's passengers - Red-billed Oxpeckers!

Can you see the Oxpecker right under the ear? Oxpeckers feed on parasites such as fleas, ticks and biting flies, so it is very beneficial to the rhinos. It's a win-win situation - the birds get to eat and the rhinos get rid of their pests. Sounds like a pretty good deal.
