Hello, I'm Leah, it's Tuesday and we've got loads coming up | 0:00:02 | 0:00:05 | |
on Newsround today including: The story of the baby rhino that | 0:00:05 | 0:00:09 | |
survived against the odds. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:13 | |
And find out about the spot that crossed the sun yesterday. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:16 | |
Firefighters have been able to inspect the damage after a huge | 0:00:25 | 0:00:27 | |
wildfire that destroyed the Canadian town of Fort McMurray | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
more than a week ago. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:35 | |
While some neighbourhoods have been almost entirely wiped out, | 0:00:35 | 0:00:39 | |
experts believe many of the town's buildings have survived. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
It offers some hope to the 88,000 people who escaped the flames | 0:00:42 | 0:00:46 | |
and officials say they people may be able to return in about two weeks. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:53 | |
A grammar, punctuation and spelling test due to be taken this morning | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
by all ten and 11 year old children in England has been | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
accidentally published online. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
SATs answers appeared on a password protected exam board | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
website for a short while. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
It's the second time in three weeks this has happen. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
The Department for Education says it's investigating the mistake | 0:01:09 | 0:01:13 | |
and the test will still be going ahead as normal. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
Now to the story of an amazing baby rhino. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
In February his mum was killed by poachers for her horn and then | 0:01:18 | 0:01:23 | |
they tried to take his too, but he survived. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
At least one rhino a day is killed by poachers in Africa by criminals | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
who sell their horns for a lot of money. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:30 | |
This is Lofo's story. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:33 | |
It's February 2016, and a wounded rhino is being rushed into this | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
animal orphanage in South Africa. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:49 | |
I wish more people would explain how horrible it is to find these babies. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:55 | |
He's just a baby, and his mum has been killed by poachers. | 0:01:56 | 0:02:00 | |
It's traumatic, they're stressed, they call for their mums. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:10 | |
Their herd is gone, their mum is gone. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:15 | |
His name is Lofo and vets are giving him life-saving treatment. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:19 | |
This orphanage is the biggest in the world and looks | 0:02:30 | 0:02:35 | |
after over 50 rhino. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:36 | |
They are in a terrible state, they are very scared. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:39 | |
They fear everything. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:43 | |
What you immediately pick up in your heart is devastating. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
Like Lofo, they have all lost their mums because of poaching. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
After Lofo's man was killed, he was attacked by the poachers | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
who tried to take his horn as well, but he managed to escape. | 0:02:55 | 0:03:01 | |
The wounds on his back was severe, very, very deep. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
The brutality must have been something else. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
Lofo was alone for five days in the national park, | 0:03:08 | 0:03:13 | |
with no milk, food or water. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:14 | |
Despite his injuries he survived, and was luckily found by the team. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:19 | |
That animal wants to love. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
That's all he wants to do. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:26 | |
He wants to love. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 | |
Petronella and a group of experts have operated on Lofo's wounds. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:31 | |
They have fed him by hand everyday and they are now | 0:03:31 | 0:03:36 | |
helping him to get well again. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:37 | |
He just grabbed onto life. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
Now, you know, you can stand with him and he will kiss you, | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
and he enjoys being with others. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
He's getting stronger and he's got a new family. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:52 | |
I can't wait to release him to breed with females and see all those | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
babies running around. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:02 | |
I can't wait, he's a brilliant animal. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:04 | |
He's lovely, isn't he? | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
Well, tomorrow you'll be able to see Defending the Rhino on CBBC, | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |

magnificent creatures. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
And, you can watch the trailer for the film over | 0:04:27 | 0:04:29 | |

That's also where you can find out more about poaching and learn how | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
poo can help you track a rhino. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
Finally, it was a good day for stargazers yesterday | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
as the planet Mercury crossed the face of the sun causing | 0:04:40 | 0:04:43 | |
a black dot to appear. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:44 | |
This event lasted about seven hours and it won't happen | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
again for three years. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:47 | |
It was too dangerous to watch with the naked eye but could be | 0:04:47 | 0:04:50 | |
seen through telescopes. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:52 | |
That's all from me, Newsround's back right here in about half an hour. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:56 |
