Aaron Ramsey wants you to swipe right to a huge 2,300kg beast on Tinder

You could do worse

This is one of those rare times where it is acceptable to use a rhino emoji in the context of a Tinder profile.

Aaron Ramsey wants you to match with a rhinoceros on Tinder.

No really, he wants you to swipe right with a rhinoceros – a white rhino named Sudan, to be more specific.

Sudan has been popping up on people’s Tinder apps for the last while as part of the ‘The Most Eligible Bachelor in the World’ campaign from Ol Pejeta Conservancy partnered with the popular dating app.

According to the campaign, Sudan is the only remaining male northern white rhino on the planet. Their aim is to raise $9 million needed to protect the species from being wiped out by using the funds for research into Assisted Reproductive Techniques which, once perfected, will aid to achieve successful pregnancies to gradually build up a viable herd of northern white rhinos.
